Like a multi-line-editable-text control,
except that the value may be any lisp object rather than a string
only. When the control's value is set programmatically to a new
arbitrary lisp object, pprint
is called internally on the object to return a string to be displayed
in the control. When the end user types into the control, read-from-string is
called internally on the new string to produce a new arbitrary lisp
object that is then stored as the value of the control. Errors are
trapped during the reading so that no break will occur; if an error is
signaled during the reading then nil is stored as the value of the
control.
