    function

 Description

    XmCreateMessageDialog is a convenience creation function that creates a
    DialogShell and an unmanaged MessageBox child of the DialogShell.  A Mes-
    sageDialog is used for common interaction tasks, which include giving in-
    formation, asking questions, and reporting errors.  It includes a symbol,
    a message, and three buttons.  By default, there is no symbol.  The
    default button labels are ``OK'', ``Cancel'', and ``Help''.

    Use XtManageChild to pop up the MessageDialog (passing the MessageBox as
    the widget parameter); use XtUnmanageChild to pop it down.
