     num_args)
           String name;
           WidgetClass widget_class;

     This is user-contributed.

ARGUMENTS
     args      Specifies the argument list to override the
               resource defaults.

     name      Specifies the text name for the created shell
               widget.

     num_args  Specifies the number of arguments in the argument
               list.

     parent    Specifies the parent widget.

     widget_class
               Specifies the widget class pointer for the created
               shell widget.

DESCRIPTION
     The XtCreatePopupShell function ensures that the specified
     class is a subclass of Shell and, rather than using
     insert_child to attach the widget to the parent's children
     list, attaches the shell to the parent's pop-ups list
     directly.

     A spring-loaded pop-up invoked from a translation table
     already must exist at the time that the translation is
     invoked, so the translation manager can find the shell by
     name.  Pop-ups invoked in other ways can be created ``on-
     the-fly'' when the pop-up actually is needed.  This delayed
     creation of the shell is particularly useful when you pop up
     an unspecified number of pop-ups.  You can look to see if an
     appropriate unused shell (that is, not currently popped up)
     exists and create a new shell if needed.
