XmTextGetSource(3X)

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

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/Text.h>
          XmTextSource XmTextGetSource(
          Widget widget);

     VERSION
          This page documents Motif 2.1.

     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(3).

          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(3).

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