I recall this topic being discussed recently here; I can't find
the digest(s) in which it was, else I'd not be asking this. My
apologies.
I find that for a project I am working on, I need some
"bulletproof" routines for numeric input which allow for "full"
input editing (at least supporting destructive backspace). At a
minimum, I need to be able to optionally restrict input to
integral values; best would be if I could both restrict the type
(integer vs. float/atom) and the range (lowest and highest
allowed values, allowing for open-ended ranges). I would be duly
grateful if someone could point me in an appropriate direction.
