NAME
     XtParseTranslationTable, XtAugmentTranslations, XtOverrideTranslations,
     XtUninstallTranslations - manage translation tables

SYNTAX
     XtTranslations XtParseTranslationTable(table)
           String table;

     void XtAugmentTranslations(w, translations)
           Widget w;
           XtTranslations translations;

     void XtOverrideTranslations(w, translations)
           Widget w;
           XtTranslations translations;

     void XtUninstallTranslations(w)
           Widget w;

ARGUMENTS
     table     Specifies the translation table to compile.

     translations
               Specifies the compiled translation table to merge in (must not
               be NULL).

     w         Specifies the widget into which the new translations are to be
               merged or removed.

DESCRIPTION
     The XtParseTranslationTable function compiles the translation table into
     the opaque internal representation of type XtTranslations.  Note that if
     an empty translation table is required for any purpose, one can be
     obtained by calling XtParseTranslationTable and passing an empty string.

     The XtAugmentTranslations function nondestructively merges the new
     translations into the existing widget translations.  If the new
     translations contain an event or event sequence that already exists in
     the widget's translations, the new translation is ignored.

     The XtOverrideTranslations function destructively merges the new
     translations into the existing widget translations.  If the new
     translations contain an event or event sequence that already exists in
     the widget's translations, the new translation is merged in and override
     the widget's translation.

     To replace a widget's translations completely, use XtSetValues on the
     XtNtranslations resource and specifiy a compiled translation table as the
     value.

     The XtUninstallTranslations function causes the entire translation table
     for widget to be removed.
