Actually, I even want to know when the gadget is de-selected if the user
clicks outside of any gadget, or in another window.  I have a window with
a lot of string gadgets in which numbers are entered.  Some of the numbers
can be recalculated depending on values in other fields.  If a user can
enter a number in a field and then just click outside any gadget (to get
rid of the cursor) without letting the program know that a value has been
changed, he could make it appear that results followed from a set of
input values with which they were in fact inconsistent.  An unethical
person could use this 'feature' fraudulently.

Anyway the problem is sol-ved.  I have outlined my solution in a followup
to a followup by jimm.
