DESCRIPTION

XmCreatePromptDialog is a convenience creation function that creates a DialogShell and an unmanaged SelectionBox child of the DialogShell.  A PromptDialog prompts the user for text input.  It includes a message, a text input region, and three managed buttons.  The default button labels are OK, Cancel, and Help.  An additional button, with Apply as the default label, is created unmanaged; it may be explicitly managed if needed.  One additional WorkArea child may be added to the SelectionBox after creation. 

XmCreatePromptDialog forces the value of the SelectionBox resource XmNdialogType to XmDIALOG_PROMPT. 

Use XtManageChild to pop up the PromptDialog (passing the SelectionBox as the widget parameter); use XtUnmanageChild to pop it down.
