#include <Xm/Xm.h>
Boolean XmTextFindString (widget, start, string, direction, position)
Widget widget;
XmTextPosition start;
char *string;
XmTextDirection direction;
XmTextPosition *position;
DESCRIPTION
XmTextFindString locates the beginning position of a specified text string. This routine searches forward or backward for the first occur-
rence of the string starting from the given start position. If it finds a match, the function returns the position of the first character
of the string in position. Specifies the Text widget ID. Specifies the character position from which the search proceeds. This is an
integer number of characters from the beginning of the text buffer. The first character position is 0. Specifies the search string.
Indicates the search direction. It is relative to the primary direction of the text. The possible values are: The search proceeds toward
the end of the text buffer. The search proceeds toward the beginning of the text buffer. Specifies the pointer in which the first charac-
ter position of the string match is returned. This is an integer number of characters from the beginning of the buffer. The first charac-
ter position is 0. If the function returns False, this value is undefined.
