XmTextSetSource(3)	   Library Functions Manual	    XmTextSetSource(3)

NAME
       XmTextSetSource -- A Text function that sets the	source of the widget

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<Xm/Text.h>
       void XmTextSetSource(
       Widget widget,
       XmTextSource source,
       XmTextPosition top_character,
       XmTextPosition cursor_position);

DESCRIPTION
       XmTextSetSource	sets  the  source of the Text widget. Text widgets can
       share sources of	text so	that editing in	one widget is reflected	in an-
       other. This function sets the source of one widget so that it can share
       the source of another widget.

       Setting a new text source destroys the old text source if no other Text
       widgets are using that source.  To replace a text source	 but  keep  it
       for  later  use,	 create	an unmanaged Text widget and set its source to
       the text	source you want	to keep.

       widget	 Specifies the Text widget ID.

       source	 Specifies the source with which  the  widget  displays	 text.
		 This  can be a	value returned by the XmTextGetSource(3) func-
		 tion. If no source is specified, the widget creates a default
		 string	source.

       top_character
		 Specifies the position	in the text to display at the  top  of
		 the widget.  This is an integer number	of characters from the
		 beginning of the text buffer. The first character position is
		 0 (zero).

       cursor_position
		 Specifies the position	in the text at which the insert	cursor
		 is  located. This is an integer number	of characters from the
		 beginning of the text buffer. The first character position is
		 0 (zero).

       For a complete definition of Text and its associated resources, see Xm-
       Text(3).
