Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Read input file with in awk script not through command line Post 302824683 by zaxxon on Friday 21st of June 2013 10:00:04 AM

I see no easy way to do that, that is not awkward. Neither do I see a reason why this has to be done. What is the reason if I may ask? Why not just use a shell script that calls awk?

Maybe someone else has an idea how to do that the way you want it.

XtCallbackNonexclusive()												  XtCallbackNonexclusive()

Name
  XtCallbackNonexclusive - callback function to pop up a widget.

Synopsis
  void XtCallbackNonexclusive(w, client_data, call_data)
	 Widget w;
	 XtPointer client_data;
	 XtPointer call_data;

Inputs
  w	    Specifies the widget.

  client_data
	    Specifies the popup shell.

  call_data Specifies the callback data, which is not used by this procedure.

Description
  XtCallbackNonexclusive()  calls  XtPopup() on the widget passed in the client_data argument with grab_mode set to XtGrabNonexclusive.  Then
  it calls XtSetSensitive() on w to make that widget insensitive.

  XtCallbackNonexclusive() is a convenience procedure designed to be registered on a widget's callback list (which is why  it  has  a  third,
  unused  argument).   The  widget to be popped up should be registered as client_data for the callback.  The reason that this callback makes
  its invoking widget insensitive is so that the user cannot request to popup the shell again while it is already up.

Usage
  To popup a shell with a non-exclusive grab or with no grab at all, you can use XtCallbackNonexlusive() or XtCallbackNone().  To  popdown  a
  shell from a callback, use XtCallbackPopdown().

  Note that this function does not attempt to place the popup shell at any particular location, and for that reason may not be appropriate in
  many circumstances.

  It is also possible to pop up a shell with the XtMenuPopup action.

Example
  To arrange for the shell pshell to be popped up when the user clicks on the button widget button, you would use code like the following:

	 XtAddCallback(button,XtNcallback,XtCallbackNonexclusive,pshell);

  A companion example is presented on the XtCallbackPopdown() reference page.
