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 another. 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) function. 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  begin-
	       ning  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 begin-
	       ning 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).
