          resource converter

     SYNTAX
          void XtAppSetTypeConverter(app_context, from_type, to_type,
          converter, convert_args, num_args, cache_type, destructor)
              XtAppContext app_context;
              String from_type;
              String to_type;
              XtConverter converter;
              XtConvertArgList convert_args;
              Cardinal num_args;
              XtCacheType cache_type;
              XtDestructor destructor;

          void XtSetTypeConverter(from_type, to_type, converter,
          convert_args, num_args, cache_type, destructor)
              String from_type;
              String to_type;
              XtConverter converter;
              XtConvertArgList convert_args;
              Cardinal num_args;
              XtCacheType cache_type;
              XtDestructor destructor;

     ARGUMENTS
          app_context
                    Specifies the application context.

          converter Specifies the type converter procedure.

          convert_args
                    Specifies how to compute the additional arguments
                    to the converter or NULL.

          from_type Specifies the source type.

          num_args  Specifies the number of additional arguments to
                    the converter or zero.

          to_type   Specifies the destination type.

          cache_type
                    Specifies whether or not resources produced by
                    this converter are sharable or display-specific
                    and when they should be freed.

          destructor
                    Specifies a destroy procedure for resources
                    produced by this conversion, or NULL if no
                    addional action is required to deallocate
                    resources produced by the converter.

     DESCRIPTION
          XtSetTypeConverter registers the specified type converter
          and destructor in all application contexts created by the
          calling process, including any future application contexts
          that may be created.  XtAppSetTypeConverter registers the
          specified type converter in the single application context
          specified. If the same from_type and to_type are specified
          in multiple calls to either function, the most recent
          overrides the previous ones.
