- Text Functions
-.XE
-.LP
-The following functions are provided as convenience routines for use with
-the Text widget. Although many of these actions can be performed by
-modifying resources, these interfaces are frequently more efficient.
-.LP
-These data structures are defined in the Text widget's public header file,
-<X11/Xaw/Text.h>.
-.LP
-.IN "XawTextPosition" "" "@DEF@"
-typedef long XawTextPosition;
-.sp
-.LP
-Character positions in the Text widget begin at 0 and end at n, where
-n is the number of characters in the Text source widget.
-.LP
-.IN "XawTextBlock" "" "@DEF@"
-.Ds 0
-.TA .5i 1.5i 2.25i
-.ta .5i 1.5i 2.25i
-typedef struct {
- int \fIfirstPos\fP;
- int \fIlength\fP;
- char *\fIptr\fP;
- unsigned long \fIformat\fP;
-} XawTextBlock, *XawTextBlockPtr;
-.De
-.LP
-.IN "XawTextBlockPtr" ""
-.IP \fIfirstPos\fP 1.0i
-The first position, or index, to use within the \fIptr\fP field.
-The value is commonly zero.
-.IP \fIlength\fP 1.0i
-The number of characters to be used from the \fIptr\fP field.
-The number of characters used is commonly the number of characters
-in \fIptr\fP, and must not be greater than the length of the string
-in \fIptr\fP.
-.IP \fIptr\fP 1.0i
-Contains the string to be referenced by the Text widget.
-.IP \fIformat\fP 1.0i
-This flag indicates whether the data pointed to by \fBptr\fP is char
-or wchar_t. When the associated widget has \fBinternational\fP set
-to \fBfalse\fP this field must be XawFmt8Bit. When the associated
-widget has \fBinternational\fP set to \fBtrue\fP this field must be
-either XawFmt8Bit or XawFmtWide.
-.LP
-Note: Previous versions of Xaw used
-.PN FMT8BIT ,
-which has been retained for backwards compatibility. \fBFMT8BIT\fP is
-deprecated and will eventually be removed from the implementation.
-.NH 3
-Selecting Text
-.LP
-To select a piece of text, use
-.PN XawTextSetSelection :
-.IN "XawTextSetSelection" "" "@DEF@"
-.FD 0
-void XawTextSetSelection(\fIw\fP, \fIleft\fP, \fIright\fP)
-.br
- Widget \fIw\fP;
-.br
- XawTextPosition \fIleft\fP, \fIright\fP;
-.FN
-.IP \fIw\fP 1i
-Specifies the Text widget.
-.IP \fIleft\fP 1i
-Specifies the character position at which the selection begins.
-.IP \fIright\fP 1i
-Specifies the character position at which the selection ends.
-.LP
-See section 5.4 for a description of \fBXawTextPosition\fP.
-If redisplay is enabled, this function highlights the text and
-makes it the \fBPRIMARY\fP selection. This function does not have any
-effect on \fBCUT_BUFFER0\fP.
-.LP
-.NH 3
-Unhighlighting Text
-.LP
-To unhighlight previously highlighted text in a widget, use
-\fBXawTextUnsetSelection\fP:
-.IN "XawTextUnsetSelection" "" "@DEF@"
-.FD 0
-void XawTextUnsetSelection(\fIw\fP)
-.br
- Widget \fIw\fP;
-.FN
-.IP \fIw\fP 1i

-.br
- XawTextPosition \fIstart\fP, \fIend\fP;
-.br
- XawTextBlock *\fItext\fP;

-Specifies the Text widget.
-.IP \fIstart\fP 1i
-Specifies the starting character position of the text replacement.
-.IP \fIend\fP 1i
-Specifies the ending character position of the text replacement.
-.IP \fItext\fP 1i
-Specifies the text to be inserted into the file.
-.LP
-This function will not
-be able to replace text in read-only text widgets. It will also only
-be able to append text to an append-only text widget.
-.LP
-See section 5.4 for a description of \fBXawTextPosition\fP and
-\fBXawTextBlock\fP.
-.LP
-This function may return the following values:
-.IP \fBXawEditDone\fP 1.25i
-.IN "XawEditDone" ""
-The text replacement was successful.
-.IP \fBXawPositionError\fP 1.25i
-.IN "XawPositionError" ""
-The edit mode is \fBXawtextAppend\fP and \fIstart\fP is not the position of
-the last character of the source.
-.IP \fBXawEditError\fP 1.25i
-.IN "XawEditError" ""
-Either the Source was read-only or the range to be deleted is larger
-than the length of the Source.
-
-.LP
-The \fBXawTextReplace\fP arguments \fIstart\fP and
-\fIend\fP represent the text source character positions for the
-existing text that is to be replaced by the text in the text block.
-The characters from \fIstart\fP up to
-but not including \fIend\fP are deleted, and the characters
-specified on the text block are inserted in their place. If
-\fIstart\fP and \fIend\fP are equal, no text is deleted and the new
-text is inserted after \fIstart\fP.
-.NH 3
-Searching for Text
-.LP
-To search for a string in the Text widget, use
-\fBXawTextSearch\fP:
-.IN "XawTextSearch" "" "@DEF@"

-.IP \fItext\fP 1i
-Specifies a text block structure that contains the text to search for.
-.LP
-See section 5.4 for a description of \fBXawTextPosition\fP and \fBXawTextBlock\fP.
-The \fBXawTextSearch\fP function will begin at the insertion point
-and search in the
-direction specified for a string that matches the one passed in
-\fItext\fP. If the string is found the location of the first
-character in the string is returned. If the string could not be
-found then the value \fBXawTextSearchError\fP is returned.
-.NH 3

-immediately if redisplay is enabled or the next time that redisplay is
-enabled.
-.LP
-.sp 1
-To enable redisplay, use \fBXawTextEnableRedisplay\fP:
-.IN "XawTextEnableRedisplay" "" "@DEF@"
-.FD 0
