How to use controllers?

So yeah, http://wiki.esoui.com/Controls

How do you access them in lua, using the names listed there doesn't work, how can the wiki be missing something so fundamental?
You would think for example, it would be TextBufferControl:AddMessage(), but it's not, it's CHAT_SYSTEM:AddMessage().

Specifically I'm looking for EditControl - any ideas?

Edit... I found it... http://www.esoui.com/forums/attachme...5&d=1395265565
But still, I'm not having much luck with that list

Controls are just object types. Frames, labels, buttons, etc. TextBufferControl is a TYPE of object that you need to create (or access one that the game already created, like CHAT_SYSTEM) before you can call :AddMessage() on it.
