DESCRIPTION
     XmTextSetHighlight  highlights text between the two specified character po-
     sitions.  The mode parameter determines the type  of  highlighting.   High-
     lighting text merely changes the visual appearance of the text; it does not
     set the selection.


     widget Specifies the Text widget ID

     left   Specifies  the  position  of  the  left boundary of text to be high-
            lighted.  This is an integer number of characters from the beginning
            of the text buffer.  The first character position is 0.

     right  Specifies the position of the right boundary of  text  to  be  high-
            lighted.  This is an integer number of characters from the beginning
            of the text buffer.  The first character position is 0.

     mode   Specifies  the  type of highlighting to be done.  A value of XmHIGH-
            LIGHT_NORMAL removes highlighting.  A value of  XmHIGHLIGHT_SELECTED
            highlights  the  text  using  reverse  video.   A  value  of XmHIGH-
            LIGHT_SECONDARY_SELECTED highlights the text using underlining.
