XtParseAcceleratorTable(3Xt)X Version 11(Release 3)XtParseAcceleratorTable(3Xt)


NAME
      XtParseAcceleratorTable, XtInstallAccelerators, XtInstallAllAccelerators
      - managing accelerator tables

SYNTAX
      XtAccelerators XtParseAcceleratorTable(source)
            String source;

      void XtInstallAccelerators(destination, source)
            Widget destination;
            Widget source;

      void XtInstallAllAccelerators(destination, source)
            Widget destination;
            Widget source;

ARGUMENTS
      source    Specifies the accelerator table to compile.

      destination
                Specifies the widget on which the accelerators are to be
                installed.

      source    Specifies the widget or the root widget of the widget tree from
                which the accelerators are to come.

DESCRIPTION
      The XtParseAcceleratorTable function compiles the accelerator table into
      the opaque internal representation.

      The XtInstallAccelerators function installs the accelerators from source
      onto destination by augmenting the destination translations with the
      source accelerators.  If the source display_accelerator method is non-
      NULL, XtInstallAccelerators calls it with the source widget and a string
      representation of the accelerator table, which indicates that its
      accelerators have been installed and that it should display them
      appropriately.  The string representation of the accelerator table is its
      canonical translation table representation.

      The XtInstallAllAccelerators function recursively descends the widget
      tree rooted at source and installs the accelerators of each widget
      encountered onto destination.  A common use os to call
      XtInstallAllAccelerators and pass the application main window as the
      source.
