Hi guys, I use this function which was provided to me by someone at this site. It works perfectly for validating a users input option against allowed options..
example:
validateInput "1" "1 3 4 5" would return 0 (success)
but now we allow users to enter more than 1 number and so this validate needs to be improved
validateInput "16" "1 3 4 5" this should return fail (1) as 6 is not in the allowedInput string.. currently the function return success because "1" is in the allowedInput string.. but I somehow need it to verify all the numbers in the first parameter

XmbResetIC(3) XLIB FUNCTIONS XmbResetIC(3)NAME
XmbResetIC, XwcResetIC, Xutf8ResetIC - reset the state of an input context
SYNTAX
char *XmbResetIC(XIC ic);
wchar_t *XwcResetIC(XIC ic);
char *Xutf8ResetIC(XIC ic);
ARGUMENTS
ic Specifies the input context.
DESCRIPTION
When XNResetState is set to XIMInitialState, XmbResetIC, XwcResetIC and Xutf8ResetIC reset an input context to its initial state; when
XNResetState is set to XIMPreserveState, the current input context state is preserved. In both cases, any input pending on that context is
deleted. The input method is required to clear the preedit area, if any, and update the status accordingly. Calling XmbResetIC, XwcRe-
setIC or Xutf8ResetIC does not change the focus.
The return value of XmbResetIC is its current preedit string as a multibyte string. The return value of XwcResetIC is its current preedit
string as a wide character string. The return value of Xutf8ResetIC is its current preedit string as an UTF-8 string. If there is any
preedit text drawn or visible to the user, then these procedures must return a non-NULL string. If there is no visible preedit text, then
it is input method implementation-dependent whether these procedures return a non-NULL string or NULL.
The client should free the returned string by calling XFree.
The function Xutf8ResetIC is an extension introduced by The XFree86 Project, Inc. in their 4.0.2 release. Its presence is indicated by the
macro X_HAVE_UTF8_STRING.
