XmParseTable(3) 	    Library Functions Manual		 XmParseTable(3)

NAME
     XmParseTable -- Data type for a compound string parse table

SYNOPSIS
     #include <Xm/Xm.h>

DESCRIPTION
     XmParseTable  is  the  data type for an array of parse mappings (objects of
     type XmParseMapping).

     A parse table is used by some routines  that  parse  and  unparse	compound
     strings.	The  table is an ordered list of parse mappings.  A parsing rou-
     tine that uses a parse table scans the input text and  searches  the  parse
     mappings,	in  order,  for  one containing a pattern that matches the input
     text.  The matching parse mapping supplies a compound string to be included
     in the compound string under construction.

     An unparsing routine that uses a parse table searches the	parse  mappings,
     in  order, for one containing a compound string that matches the input com-
     pound string.  The unparsing routine can then include the	parse  mapping's
     text pattern in the output text under construction.
