NAME

       XmTextPosition  --  Data  type  for  a character position within a text
       string


SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>


DESCRIPTION

       XmTextPosition is an integer data type that holds a  character's  posi-
       tion within a text string for Text and TextField.

       An  XmTextPosition  value  conceptually  points  to the gap between two
       characters.  For example, consider a text string consisting of N  char-
       acters.   A  value of 0 refers to the position immediately prior to the
       first character.  A value of 1 refers to the position  in  between  the
       first and second characters.  A value of N refers to the position imme-
       diately following the last character. Therefore, the text string  of  N
       characters actually contains N + 1 positions.
