NAME
       XmTextGetSubstringWcs - A Text function that retrieves a portion of a wide character internal text buffer

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Text.h>

       int XmTextGetSubstringWcs (widget, start, num_chars, buffer_size, buffer)
	       Widget widget;
	       XmTextPosition start;
	       int num_chars;
	       int buffer_size;
	       wchar_t *buffer;

DESCRIPTION
       XmTextGetSubstringWcs retrieves a copy of a portion of the internal text buffer of a Text widget that is stored in a wide character format.
       The function copies a specified number of characters from a given start position in the internal text buffer into a buffer provided by  the
       application.   A NULL terminator is placed at the end of the copied data.  Specifies the Text widget ID.  Specifies the beginning character
       position from which the data will be retrieved.	This is an integer number of characters from the beginning of the text buffer.	The  first
       character position is 0.  Specifies the number of wchar_t characters to be copied into the provided buffer.  Specifies the size of the sup-
       plied buffer as a number of wchar_t storage locations.  The minimum size is num_chars + 1.  Specifies the wide character buffer into  which
       the internal text buffer will be copied.

       For a complete definition of Text and its associated resources, see XmText(3X).

RETURN VALUE
       The  function  was  successful.	 The function failed because it was unable to copy the specified number of characters into the buffer pro-
       vided. The buffer size may be insufficient.  The contents of buffer are undefined.  The requested number of characters extended beyond  the
       internal  buffer.   The	function  copied characters between start and the end of the widget's buffer and terminated the string with a NULL
       terminator; fewer than num_chars characters were copied.
