     NAME
          XmStringCompare - A compound string function that compares
          two strings

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/Xm.h>

          Boolean XmStringCompare (s1, s2)
               XmString  s1;
               XmString  s2;


     VERSION
          This page documents version 1.2 of the Motif library.

     DESCRIPTION
          XmStringCompare returns a Boolean value indicating the
          results of a semantically equivalent comparison of two
          compound strings.

          Semantically equivalent means that the strings have the same
          text components, font list element tags, directions, and
          separators.  In general, if two compound strings are created
          with the same (char *) string using XmStringCreateLocalized
          in the same language environment, the compound strings
          compare as equal.  If two compound strings are created with
          the same (char *) string and the same font list element tag
          other than XmFONTLISTDEFAULTTAG using XmStringCreate, the
          strings compare as equal.


          s1     Specifies a compound string to be compared with s2

          s2     Specifies a compound string to be compared with s1


     RETURN VALUE
          Returns True if two compound strings are equivalent.
