          Widget XmVaCreateSimpleOptionMenu(
          Widget parent,
          String name,
          XmString option_label,

     VERSION
          This page documents Motif 2.1.

     DESCRIPTION
          XmVaCreateSimpleOptionMenu creates an instance of a
          RowColumn widget of type XmMENU_OPTION and returns the
          associated widget ID.  This routine uses the ANSI C
          variable-length argument list (varargs) calling convention.

          This routine creates an OptionMenu and its Pulldown submenu
          containing PushButtonGadget or CascadeButtonGadget children.
          The name of each button is button_n, where n is an integer
          from 0 (zero) to the number of buttons in the menu minus 1.
          The name of each separator is separator_n, where n is an
          integer from 0 (zero) to the number of separators in the
          menu minus 1.  Buttons and separators are named and created
          in the order in which they are specified in the variable
          portion of the argument list.

          parent    Specifies the parent widget ID

          name      Specifies the name of the created widget

          option_label
                    Specifies the label string to be used on the left
                    side of the OptionMenu.

          option_mnemonic
                    Specifies a keysym for a key that, when pressed by
                    the user, posts the associated Pulldown menu pane.

          button_set
                    Specifies which PushButtonGadget is initially set.
                    The value is the integer n that corresponds to the
                    nth PushButtonGadget specified in the variable
                    portion of the argument list.  Only a
                    PushButtonGadget can be set, and only
                    PushButtonGadgets are counted in determining the
                    integer n.  The first PushButtonGadget is number 0
                    (zero).

          callback  Specifies a callback procedure to be called when a
                    button is activated.  This callback function is
                    added to each button after creation as the
                    button's XmNactivateCallback.  The callback
                    function is called when a button is activated, and
                    the button number is returned in the client_data
                    field.

          The variable portion of the argument list consists of groups
          of arguments.  The first argument in each group is a
          constant or a string and determines which arguments follow
          in that group.  The last argument in the list must be NULL.
          Following are the possible first arguments in each group of
          varargs:

          XmVaPUSHBUTTON
                    This is followed by four additional arguments. The
                    set specifies one button in the OptionMenu's
                    Pulldown submenu and some of its resource values.
                    The button created is a PushButtonGadget.
                    Following are the additional four arguments, in
                    order:

                    label     The label string, of type XmString

                    mnemonic  The mnemonic, of type KeySym

                    accelerator
                              The accelerator, of type String

                    accelerator_text
                              The accelerator text, of type XmString

          XmVaSEPARATOR
                    This is followed by no additional arguments. It
                    specifies one separator in the OptionMenu's
                    Pulldown submenu.

          XmVaDOUBLE_SEPARATOR
                    This is followed by no additional arguments. It
                    specifies one separator in the OptionMenu's
                    Pulldown submenu. The separator type is
                    XmDOUBLE_LINE.

          resource_name
                    This is followed by one additional argument, the
                    value of the resource, of type XtArgVal. The pair
                    specifies a resource and its value for the
                    Pulldown submenu.
          XtVaTypedArg
                    This is followed by four additional arguments. The
                    set specifies a resource and its value for the
                    Pulldown submenu. A resource type conversion is
                    performed if necessary. Following are the
                    additional four arguments, in order:

                    name      The resource name, of type String

                    type      The type of the resource value supplied,
                              of type String

                    value     The resource value (or a pointer to the
                              resource value, depending on the type
                              and size of the value), of type XtArgVal

                    size      The size of the resource value in bytes,
                              of type int

          XtVaNestedList
                    This is followed by one additional argument of
                    type XtVarArgsList.  This argument is a nested
                    list of varargs returned by XtVaCreateArgsList.

          The user can specify resources in a resource file for the
          automatically created widgets and gadgets of an OptionMenu.
          The following list identifies the names of these widgets (or
          gadgets) and the associated OptionMenu areas:

          Option Menu Label Gadget
                    OptionLabel

          Option Menu Cascade Button
                    OptionButton

          For more information on variable-length argument lists, see
          the X Toolkit Intrinsics documentation.

          A number of resources exist specifically for use with this
          and other simple menu creation routines.  For a complete
          definition of RowColumn and its associated resources, see
          XmRowColumn(3).

     RETURN
          Returns the RowColumn widget ID.
