NAME
     XtAppGetSelectionTimeout, XtAppSetSelectionTimeout- set and
     obtain selection timeout values

SYNTAX
     unsigned long XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(app_context)
          XtAppContext app_context;

     void XtAppSetSelectionTimeout(app_context, timeout)
         XtAppContext app_context;
         unsigned long timeout;

ARGUMENTS
     app_context
               Specifies the application context.

     timeout   Specifies the selection timeout in milliseconds.

DESCRIPTION
     The XtAppGetSelectionTimeout function returns the current
     selection timeout value, in milliseconds.  The selection
     timeout is the time within which the two communicating
     applications must respond to one another.  The initial
     timeout value is set by the selectionTimeout application
     resource, or, if selectionTimeout is not specified, it
     defaults to five seconds.

     The XtAppSetSelectionTimeout function sets the Intrinsics's
     selection timeout mechanism.  Note that most applications
     should not set the selection timeout.
