     VERSION
          This page documents version 1.2 of the Motif library.

     DESCRIPTION
          XmTextSetHighlight 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 Text 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 text
                 using reverse video.  A value of
                 XmHIGHLIGHTSECONDARYSELECTED highlights the text
                 using underlining.
