NAME

       XmStringNConcat - A compound string function that appends a specified number of bytes to a compound string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

       XmString XmStringNConcat (s1, s2, num_bytes)
	       XmString s1;
	       XmString s2;
	       int num_bytes;

DESCRIPTION

       XmStringNConcat	appends  a specified number of bytes from s2 to the end of s1, including tags, directional indicators, and separators.	It
       then returns the resulting compound string.  The original strings are preserved.  The space for the resulting compound string is  allocated
       within the function. The application is responsible for managing the allocated space.  The memory can be recovered by calling XmStringFree.
       Specifies the compound string to which a copy of s2 is appended.  Specifies the compound string that is appended to the end of s1.   Speci-
       fies  the number of bytes of s2 to append to s1. If this value is less than the length of s2, as many bytes as possible, but possibly fewer
       than this value, will be appended to s1 such that the resulting string is still a valid compound string.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns a new compound string.

NAME

       XmStringTableToXmString -- A convenience function that converts a compound string table to a single compound string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       XmString XmStringTableToXmString(
       XmStringTable table,
       Cardinal count,
       XmString break_component);

DESCRIPTION

       XmStringTableToXmString takes as input table of compound strings and a specified string component (such as a tab) and returns a single com-
       pound string consisting of each of the elements of table concatenated together with a single copy of break_component inserted between  each
       element.

       table	 Specifies an XmStringTable containing the compound strings to be converted.

       count	 Specifies the number of compound strings in table.

       break_component
		 Specifies the XmStringComponent that will be inserted in the result to separate the individual elements of table. The most useful
		 types will be XmSTRING_COMPONENT_SEPARATOR and XmSTRING_COMPONENT_TAB.  Refer to the XmStringComponentType(3) reference page  for
		 a complete list of possible component types. Note, however, that the XmSTRING_COMPONENT_UNKNOWN component is not a possible type.

RETURN

       Returns	a  new XmString.  The function will allocate space to hold the returned compound string.  When the application no longer needs the
       returned compound string, the application should call XmStringFree.
