NAME
       Term::Stool::Button - button widget

DESCRIPTION
       This is a button widget.

       Term::Stool::Widget is the parent of this class.

FIELDS
       text
           Text to display on the face of the button. If it con-
           tains a '&' character, then the letter after that
           character is highlighted, and a hotkey is set up for
           it, to allow the user to quickly trigger the button.

       press_hook
           If this contains a sub reference, the subroutine will
           be called when the button is pressed. Otherwise, the
           main event loop is exited when a button is pressed.

METHODS
       init
           Set up colors, etc.

       text
           Actually, text is implemented as a method to make the
           hotkey stuff work.  Also, when the text of the button
           is set/changed, the button's width is automatically
           adjusted to fit it.

           TODO: this cannot work with lvalues, so it needs to be
           redesigned.

       display
           Displays the button

       keypress
           Hitting space or enter causes the button to be
           pressed.
