       a character position

       Boolean XmTextPosToXY (widget, position, x, y)

            XmTextPositionposition;
            Position  *x;

DESCRIPTION
       XmTextPosToXY accesses the x and y position, relative to the upper
       left corner of the Text widget, of a given character position in the
       text buffer.

        position
               Specifies the character position in the text for which the x
               and y position is accessed.  This is an integer number of
               characters from the beginning of the buffer.  The first
               character position is 0.

        x      Specifies the pointer in which the x position, relative to
               the upper left corner of the widget, is returned.  This value
               is meaningful only if the function returns True.

        y      Specifies the pointer in which the y position, relative to
               the upper left corner of the widget, is returned.  This value
               is meaningful only if the function returns True.

       returned.
