DtEditorGetLastPosition(library call)									     DtEditorGetLastPosition(library call)

NAME

       DtEditorGetLastPosition -- retrieve the position of the last character in a DtEditor widget

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Dt/Editor.h>
       XmTextPosition DtEditorGetLastPosition(
       Widget widget);

DESCRIPTION

       The  DtEditorGetLastPosition function accesses the last text position in the DtEditor widget.  The position is an integer number of charac-
       ters from the beginning of the widget's buffer.	Any text added to the end of the buffer is added after this position.  The first character
       position is zero.  The last character position is equal to the number of characters contained in the widget.

       The widget argument specifies the DtEditor widget ID.

       For a complete definition of the DtEditor widget and its associated resources, see DtEditor(3).

RETURN VALUE

       Upon  successful  completion,  the DtEditorGetLastPosition function returns an XmTextPosition value that indicates the last position in the
       text; otherwise, it returns NULL.

APPLICATION USAGE

       The position information is given in terms of characters, which may differ from the byte position when multi-byte code sets are in use.

SEE ALSO

       Dt/Editor.h - DtEditor(5), DtEditor(3), DtEditorGetInsertionPosition(3), DtEditorSetInsertionPosition(3).
