     NAME
          XmCvtStringToUnitType - A function that converts a string to
          a unit-type value

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/Xm.h>

          void XmCvtStringToUnitType (args, num_args, from_val, to_val)
               XrmValuePtrargs;
               Cardinal  * num_args;
               XrmValue  * from_val;
               XrmValue  * to_val;


     VERSION
          This page documents version 1.2 of the Motif library.

     DESCRIPTION
          XmCvtStringToUnitType converts a string to a unit type.
          Refer to the man pages for XmGadget, XmManager, or
          XmPrimitive for a description of the valid unit types.  Use
          of this function as a resource converter is obsolete.  It
          has been replaced by a new resource converter that uses the
          RepType facility.


          args   Specifies a list of additional XrmValue arguments to
                 the converter if additional context is needed to
                 perform the conversion.  For example, the string-to-
                 font converter needs the widget's screen and the
                 string-to-pixel converter needs the widget's screen
                 and color map.  This argument is often NULL.

          num_args
                 Specifies the number of additional XrmValue
                 arguments.  This argument is often zero.

          from_val
                 Specifies the value to convert

          to_val Specifies the descriptor to use to return the
                 converted value
