NAME

XmTextReplace — a Text function that replaces part of a text string.

SYNOPSIS

#include <Xm/Text.h> void XmTextReplace (widget, from_pos, to_pos, value)
Widgetwidget;
XmTextPosition from_pos;
XmTextPosition to_pos;
char∗ value;

DESCRIPTION

XmTextReplace replaces part of the text string in the Text widget.  The character positions begin at zero and are numbered sequentially from the beginning of the text. 

An example text replacement would be to replace the second and third characters in the text string.  To accomplish this, the parameter from_pos must be 1 and to_pos must be 3.  To insert a string after the fourth character, both parameters, from_pos and to_pos, must be 4. 

This routine also calls the widget’s XmNmodifyVerifyCallback and XmNvalueChangedCallback callbacks. 

widgetSpecifies the Text widget ID

from_posSpecifies the start position of the text to be replaced

to_posSpecifies the end position of the text to be replaced

valueSpecifies the character string value to be added to the text widget
