/**
* This is a revision of TextFieldExample4. Two modifications have been made.
* First, a Text value (ABC) has been added to the text2 field, simply for
* demonstration purposes. Second, a mouseDown() listener has been added to
* text2. Note that in the original sample, text2 would not highlight (perform
* the selectAll() operation) when it gained focus with the mouse. This is
* because clicking on the field invokes gainFocus() followed by mouseDown(),
* and mouseDown() does a clearSelection(), negating the selectAll() done in
* the gainFocus() method. You can test this by simply commenting out the
* addMouseListener code.
* <p>
* Other modifications are possible. The Text field may be designated
* read-only to prevent editing and erasing of the field when the tab key is
* used to move through the widgets. Logic can also be used to do a selectAll()
* when you first click on the field and then place the I-beam cursor if the
* mouse is clicked again.
