Does anyone know how to insert large blocks of text into a text widget?
Specifically, I want to make a help option for a widget driven program,
and the IDL help widget is exactly like what I want. I tried setting the
value of WIDGET_TEXT to be a *large* string array, but I got compilation
errors (too many elements to concatenate...). Also, the widget didn't
seem to know the correct size to make itself, and setting the size explicitly
produced unexpected results (for example, setting XSIZE to be
0.5 * CURRENT_SCREEN(0) made the widget much larger than the screen).

Thanks for any help
