          highlights text

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/TextF.h>

          void XmTextFieldSetHighlight (widget, left, right, mode)
               Widget    widget;
               XmTextPositionleft;
               XmTextPositionright;
               XmHighlightModemode;


     VERSION
          This page documents version 1.2 of the Motif library.

     DESCRIPTION
          XmTextFieldSetHighlight highlights text between the two
          specified character positions.  The mode parameter
          determines the type of highlighting.  Highlighting text
          merely changes the visual appearance of the text; it does
          not set the selection.


          widget Specifies the TextField widget ID

          left   Specifies the position of the left boundary of text
                 to be highlighted.  This is an integer number of
                 characters from the beginning of the text buffer.
                 The first character position is 0.

          right  Specifies the position of the right boundary of text
                 to be highlighted.  This is an integer number of
                 characters from the beginning of the text buffer.
                 The first character position is 0.

          mode   Specifies the type of highlighting to be done.  A
                 value of XmHIGHLIGHTNORMAL removes highlighting.  A
                 value of XmHIGHLIGHTSELECTED highlights the test
                 using reverse video.  A value of
                 XmHIGHLIGHTSECONDARYSELECTED highlights the text
                 using underlining.
