ARGUMENTS
table Specifies the translation table to compile.
translations
Specifies the compiled translation table to merge
in (must not be NULL).
w Specifies the widget into which the new
translations are to be merged or removed.
DESCRIPTION
The XtParseTranslationTable function compiles the
translation table into the opaque internal representation of
type XtTranslations. Note that if an empty translation
table is required for any purpose, one can be obtained by
calling XtParseTranslationTable and passing an empty string.
The XtAugmentTranslations function nondestructively merges
the new translations into the existing widget translations.
If the new translations contain an event or event sequence
that already exists in the widget's translations, the new
translation is ignored.
The XtOverrideTranslations function destructively merges the
new translations into the existing widget translations. If
the new translations contain an event or event sequence that
already exists in the widget's translations, the new
translation is merged in and override the widget's
translation.
To replace a widget's translations completely, use
XtSetValues on the XtNtranslations resource and specifiy a
compiled translation table as the value.
The XtUninstallTranslations function causes the entire
translation table for widget to be removed.
