XtSetSelectionParameters(3Xt)

     NAME
          XtSetSelectionParameters - specify target parameters for a
          selection request with a single target

     SYNTAX
          void XtSetSelectionParameters(requestor, selection, type,
          value, length, format)
                Widget requestor;
                Atom selection;
                Atom type;
                XtPointer value;
                unsigned long length;
                int format;

     ARGUMENTS
          requestor Specifies the widget making the request. Must be
                    of clase Core or any subclass thereof.

          selection Specifies the atom that names the selection.

          type      Specifies the type of the property in which the
                    parameters will be passed.

          value     Specifies a pointer to the parameters.

          length    Specifies the number of elements containing data
                    in value, each element of a sized indicated by
                    format.

          format    Specifies the size in bits of the data in the
                    elements of value.

     DESCRIPTION
          The specified parameters will be copied and stored in a new
          property of the specified type and format on the requestor's
          window. To initiate a selection request with a target and
          these parameters, a subsequent call to XtGetSelectionValue
          or to XtGetSelectionValueIncremental specifying the same
          requestor widget and selection atomm will generate a
          ConvertSelection request referring referring to the property
          containing the parameters. If XtSetSelectionParameters is
          called more than once with the same widget and selection
          without a call to specify a request, the most recently
          specified parameters are used in the subsequent request.

          The possible values of format may be 8, 16, or 32. If the
          format is 8, the elements of value are assumed to be
          sizeof(char); if 16, sizeof(short); if 32, sizeof(long).

          To generate a MULTIPLE target request with parameters for
          any of the multiple targets of the selection request,
          precede individual calls to XtGetSelectionValue and
          XtGetSelectionValueIncremental with corresponding individual
          calls to XtSetSelectionParameters, and enclose these all
          within XtCreateSelectionRequest and XtSendSelectionRequest.
          XtGetSelectionValues and XtGetSelectionValuesIncremental
          cannot be used  to make selection requests with
          parameterized targets.
