     NAME

     DESCRIPTION
          XmTextFieldSetMaxLength sets the value of the current
          maximum allowable length of the text string in the TextField
          widget.  The maximum allowable length prevents the user from
          entering a text string from the keyboard that is larger than
          this limit.  Strings that are entered using the XmNvalue (or
          XmNvalueWcs) resource, or the XmTextFieldSetString (or
          XmTextFieldSetStringWcs) function ignore this resource.


          widget Specifies the TextField widget ID

          max_length
                 Specifies the maximum allowable length of the text
                 string
