DtEditorGoToLine(library call)											    DtEditorGoToLine(library call)

NAME

       DtEditorGoToLine -- move the insert cursor for a DtEditor widget to a specified line

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Dt/Editor.h>
       void DtEditorGoToLine(
       Widget widget,
       int lineNumber);

DESCRIPTION

       The  DtEditorGoToLine  function	moves  the  insert cursor for the DtEditor widget to the beginning of the line specified by the lineNumber
       argument.  The cursor can be moved to the last line by specifying DtEDITOR_LAST_LINE as the line number.  If the line is not currently  on-
       screen, the contents for the DtEditor widget are scrolled to display the new insertion position.

       The lineNumber argument is the number of the line in the file, counting from 1.	If the lineNumber argument is less than 1, the insert cur-
       sor is placed at the beginning of the first line.  If the argument is greater than the total number of lines, the cursor is placed  at  the
       last line of text.

       The  insert  cursor can be moved to a specific character position with DtEditorSetInsertionPosition(3). The DtNtopCharacter resource can be
       used to control which line is displayed at the top of the DtEditor widget.

       The widget argument specifies the DtEditor widget ID.

       The lineNumber argument specifies the line number within the DtEditor widget.

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

RETURN VALUE

       The DtEditorGoToLine function returns no value.

SEE ALSO

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