input() - Style for edit text font

We have
16384 = Use Edit Text font (instead of the default Buttons and Labels font).
for inputselect()
which allows us to use a fixed font to display everything properly aligned

I'd really like the same option for input() as well
Proportional fonts mess up every alignment in the [notes] part...

Maybe call the style "e" for "edit text font"
and allow a combination like

Code: Select all

se
es
It's imho only necessary for the "s" style...

E.g. this looks so unreadable:

Code: Select all

$notes = <<<'>>>'
    Type your search query as you would in Everything!

    Additional (internal) switches and their expansions:
    d: = Only directories               => folder:
    f: = Only files                     => file:
    c: = Search content                 => content:
    l: = Search only in current path    => path:"<curpath>"
    w: = Search in Windows search index => systemindex:

    You need to prepend your query with one of these switches...
    E.g.: d:<some folder name> and NOT: <some folder name> d:

    BEWARE: Use a trailing backslash if you want the search to happen in a specific drive!
            E.g.: C:\, D:\, etc.
>>>;
    $query = input("Everything", $notes, , "s");

In the next beta just use "e" instead of "s". :)
