XmTextGetSource(3X)           SDK X11 R4.11MU05          XmTextGetSource(3X)


NAME
       XmTextGetSource--A Text function that accesses the source of the
       widget

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Text.h>

       XmTextSource XmTextGetSource (widget)
            Widget    widget;


DESCRIPTION
       XmTextGetSource accesses the source of the Text widget.  Text widgets
       can share sources of text so that editing in one widget is reflected
       in another.  This function accesses the source of one widget so that
       it can be made the source of another widget, using the function
       XmTextSetSource(3X).

       Setting a new text source destroys the old text source if no other
       Text widgets are using that source.  To replace a text source but
       keep it for later use, create an unmanaged Text widget and set its
       source to the text source you want to keep.


        widget Specifies the Text widget ID


       For a complete definition of Text and its associated resources, see
       XmText(3X).

RETURN VALUE
       Returns an XmTextSource value that represents the source of the Text
       widget.

RELATED INFORMATION
