XmTextSetMaxLength(3X)

     NAME
          XmTextSetMaxLength - A Text function that sets the value of
          the current maximum allowable length of a text string
          entered from the keyboard

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/Text.h>
          void XmTextSetMaxLength(
          Widget widget,
          int max_length);

     VERSION
          This page documents Motif 2.1.

     DESCRIPTION
          XmTextSetMaxLength sets the value of the current maximum
          allowable length of the text string in the Text widget. The
          maximum allowable length prevents the user from entering a
          text string from the keyboard that is larger than this
          limit.  Strings that are entered using the XmNvalue (or
          XmNvalueWcs) resource, or the XmTextSetString (or
          XmTextSetStringWcs) function ignore this resource.

          widget    Specifies the Text widget ID

          max_length
                    Specifies the maximum allowable length of the text
                    string

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