XmTextInsertWcs(3X)													       XmTextInsertWcs(3X)

NAME
XmTextInsertWcs - A Text function that inserts a wide character string into a Text widget SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Text.h> void XmTextInsertWcs (widget, position, wcstring) Widget widget; XmTextPosition position; wchar_t *wcstring; DESCRIPTION
XmTextInsertWcs inserts a wide character string into the Text widget at a specified location. The character positions begin at zero and are numbered sequentially from the beginning of the text. For example, to insert a string after the fourth character, the position parame- ter must be 4. This routine calls the widget's XmNvalueChangedCallback and verification callbacks, either XmNmodifyVerifyCallback or XmNmodifyVerifyCall- backWcs, or both. If both verification callback lists are registered, the procedures of the XmNmodifyVerifyCallback list are executed first and the resulting data is passed to the XmNmodifyVerifyCallbackWcs callbacks. Specifies the Text widget ID Specifies the position in the text string where the new character string is to be inserted Specifies the wide character string value to be added to the Text widget For a complete definition of Text and its associated resources, see XmText(3X).
