A program I am currently writing uses two string gadgets to display and
allow alteration of an (x,y) coordinate.  What I want to be able to do is
to allow a mouse click in a window to also set these values.  
The problem is: how do I update the string gadgets?  Can I just put the
new value into the string gadgets buffer, set the longint value and refresh
them or do I have to do something else?

Thanks
