     NAME
          XmTextSetSource - A Text function that sets the source of
          the widget

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/Text.h>

          void XmTextSetSource (widget, source, top_character, cursor_position)
               Widget    widget;
               XmTextSourcesource;
               XmTextPositiontop_character;
               XmTextPositioncursor_position;

     DESCRIPTION
          XmTextSetSource sets 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 sets the
          source of one widget so that it can share the source of
          another widget.

          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

          source
               Specifies the source with which the widget displays
               text.  This can be a value returned by the
               XmTextGetSource(3X) function.  If no source is
               specified, the widget creates a default string source.

          top_character
               Specifies the position in the text to display at the
               top of the widget.  This is an integer number of
               characters from the beginning of the text buffer.  The
               first character position is 0.

          cursor_position
               Specifies the position in the text at which the insert
               cursor is located.  This is an integer number of
               characters from the beginning of the text buffer.  The
               first character position is 0.
