NAME
       XmClipboardInquireCount--A clipboard function that returns the number
       of data item formats

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Xm.h> #include <Xm/CutPaste.h>

       int XmClipboardInquireCount (display, window, count,
                 max_format_name_length)      Display   * display;
            Window    window;      int       * count;      unsigned long*
       max_format_name_length;

DESCRIPTION
       XmClipboardInquireCount returns the number of data item formats
       available for the data item in the clipboard.  This function also
       returns the maximum name-length for all formats in which the data
       item is stored.


        display         Specifies a pointer to the Display structure that
                        was returned in a previous call to XOpenDisplay or
                        XtDisplay.

        window          Specifies a widget's window ID that relates the
                        application window to the clipboard.  The widget's
                        window ID can be obtained by using XtWindow.  The
                        same application instance should pass the same
                        window ID to each of the clipboard functions that it
                        calls.

        count           Returns the number of data item formats available
                        for the data item in the clipboard.  If no formats
                        are available, this argument equals zero.  The count
                        includes the formats that were passed by name.

        max_format_name_length
                        Specifies the maximum length of all format names for
                        the data item in the clipboard.


RETURN VALUE
        ClipboardSuccess
                        The function is successful.

        ClipboardLocked The function failed because the clipboard was locked
                        by another application.  The application can
                        continue to call the function again with the same
                        parameters until the lock goes away.  This gives the
                        application the opportunity to ask if the user wants
                        to keep trying or to give up on the operation.

        ClipboardNoData The function could not find data on the clipboard
                        corresponding to the format requested.  This could
                        occur because the clipboard is empty; there is data

                        the data in the requested format was passed by name
