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, the parameters from_pos and to_pos must both be 4. 

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.
