     NAME
          XmDragStart-A Drag and Drop function that initiates a drag
          and drop transaction

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/DragDrop.h>

     DESCRIPTION
          XmDragStart initiates a drag operation.  This routine
          returns the DragContext widget that it initializes for the
          associated drag transaction.  The toolkit is responsible for
          freeing the DragContext when the drag and drop transaction
          is complete.

                 that encloses the source elements selected for a drag
                 operation.

          event  Specifies the XEvent that triggered the drag
                 operation.  This event must be a ButtonPress event.

          arglistSpecifies the argument list.  Any XmDragContext
                 resources not specified in the argument list are
                 obtained from the resource database or are set to
                 their default values.

          argcount
                 Specifies the number of attribute/value pairs in the
                 argument list (arglist)

          resources, see XmDragContext(3X).

     RETURN VALUE
          Returns the ID of the DragContext widget that controls this
          drag and drop transaction.
