]]>]]>DtEditor library callDtEditorthe DtEditor widget class #include <Dt/Editor.h> The DtEditor widget supports creating and editing text files. It gives applications running in the desktop environment a consistent method for editing text data. The widget consists of: A scrolled edit window for text Dialogs for finding and changing text Optional status line Spell checking option ]]> Formatting options Convenience functions for programmatically controlling the widget The DtEditor widget supports the following set of basic editing operations: Finding and changing text Simple formatting Spell checking ]]> Undoing the previous edit operation ]]>]]> The DtEditor widget provides separate callback lists to track when text is selected or deselected. In addition, it extends the standard help callback to report help requests from any of its components. Widget subclassing is not supported for the DtEditor widget class. The edit window supports basic editing operations such as cut and paste, find and change, simple formatting and spell checking. ]]>The edit window supports basic editing operations such as cut and paste, find and change, and simple formatting.]]> The user can use the mouse to move the edit cursor and to select portions of a document for editing operations. Selection is based on the model specified in the Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual The DtEditor widget supports primary and secondary selection. The user can cut, copy and paste text using the clipboard, primary transfer or secondary transfer. The DtEditor widget accepts drops of text, text files or buffers of data. Text drops are inserted where the mouse button is released to complete the drop. Dropped files and buffers of data are placed at the insertion cursor. The DtEditor widget supports dragging of text within the edit window or to a different widget. The DtEditor widget provides a set of translations for the edit window. The default translations provide key bindings for moving the insertion cursor, and deleting, inserting and selecting text. The insertion cursor, displayed as an I-beam, shows where input is inserted. Input is inserted just before the insertion cursor. The status line, which can be shown or hidden, displays the current line number, total line count and whether the DtEditor widget is in overstrike mode. The current line-number display shows the line number of the line containing the insertion cursor. The user can go directly to any line in the document by entering the number into the current line number display. The status line also provides a text field for displaying application-supplied messages. For information on localizing the status line, see the Localization Resources section. ]]> The DtEditor widget includes dialogs to provide a graphical user interface to its functionality: Find/Change dialog Spell dialog. ]]> Format Settings dialog The titles of all dialogs are controlled with the DtNdialogTitle resource. All dialogs are posted using corresponding convenience functions and remain posted until dismissed by the user. Each dialog includes Close and Help buttons in addition to buttons described in the following lists. Localization Resources section. ]]> The Find/Change dialog for the DtEditor widget enables users to search for, and optionally replace, a string in the edit window. The dialog includes fields for specifying the find string and the replacement string. the next occurrence of the specified string (regular expressions are not supported) is highlighted in the DtEditor widget, if found; otherwise, the DtEditor widget displays a message dialog stating the string was not found. If the string was found, the user has the option to change the highlighted occurrence or all occurrences. The &cdeman.DtEditorFind; and &cdeman.DtEditorChange; functions provide a programmatic interface to the find and change functionality of the DtEditor widget. DtNspellFilter when the dialog is displayed. The actions for find, change to and change all are the same as the Find dialog. ]]>The Format Settings dialog for the DtEditor widget enables users to format the contents of the edit window, format just the paragraph containing the insertion cursor, or specify the arguments used when formatting text. The arguments include margin settings and text alignment. The user has the choice of aligning the text flush with the left or right margin, centering each line of text between the margins, or aligning it flush with both margins. DtNwordWrap resource is True, text wraps at the right edge of the edit window (see the description for DtNwordWrap), regardless of the right margin setting. To format text wider than the edit window, DtNwordWrap should be False. ]]>The &cdeman.DtEditorFormat; function provides a programmatic interface to the format functionality of the DtEditor widget. Word wrap and text formatting are essentially independent operations. Word wrap pertains to the dynamic display of lines, as delimited by newline characters, which exceed the width of the Text Editor window and is based on the left and right window boundaries. When word wrap mode is off (the default), each line of text is displayed on a single line on the display and text entered at the right window boundary causes the window to scroll automatically to the right to accommodate the new text until an actual newline character is entered (normally, by pressing the Return key). When word wrap mode is on, lines longer than the window width are automatically wrapped at the right window margin to one or more display lines, and text entered at the right window boundary is automatically broken on a word boundary to the first column of the next display line. Word wrap is dynamic in that word-wrapped lines are automatically adjusted when text is inserted or deleted or when the window is resized. Word wrap only affects the display of lines; it does not actually insert newline characters in the text. Text formatting is a static operation that inserts actual newline (and/or space) characters directly in the text to match it to the left and right margins (and justification mode) specified in the Format Settings dialog. Format settings affect text only when explicitly applied and have no affect on word wrap or previously formatted text. Initially, and whenever the window is resized, the right format margin is automatically set to the window width to match the word wrap boundary. The DtEditor widget inherits behavior and resources from Core, Composite, Constraint, XmManager, XmBulletinBoard and XmForm classes. The class pointer is dtEditorWidgetClass. The class name is DtEditorWidget. The following table defines a set of widget resources the application uses to specify data. The application can also set the resource values for the inherited classes to set attributes for this widget. To reference a resource by name or by class in a .Xdefaults file, the application must remove the DtN or DtC prefix and use the remaining letters. To specify one of the defined values for a resource in a .Xdefaults file, the application must remove the Dt prefix and use the remaining letters (in either lower case or upper case, but including any underscores between words). The codes in the access column indicate if the given resource can be set at creation time (C), set by using XtSetValues (S), retrieved by using XtGetValues (G), or is not applicable (N/A).

If the insert cursor changes, the contents of the DtEditor widget may scroll in order to bring the insertion point into the window. DtNblinkRate Specifies the blink rate of the text cursor in milliseconds. The time indicated in the blink rate relates to the time the cursor is visible and the time the cursor is invisible (that is, the time it takes to blink the insertion cursor on and off is twice the blink rate). The cursor does not blink when the blink rate is set to zero. The value cannot be negative. DtNbuttonFontList Specifies the font list used for the DtEditor buttons (the buttons appearing in the DtEditor dialogs). If this value is NULL at initialization, it is initialized by looking up the parent hierarchy of the widget for an ancestor that is a subclass of the XmBulletinBoard, VendorShell or XmMenuShell widget class. If such an ancestor is found, the font list is initialized to the appropriate default font list of the ancestor widget ( XmNdefaultFontList for VendorShell and XmMenuShell, and XmNbuttonFontList for XmBulletinBoard ). If no such ancestor is found, the default is implementation dependent. DtNcolumns Specifies the initial width of the edit window of the DtEditor widget as an integral number of characters. The width equals the number of characters this resource specifies multiplied by the maximum character width of the associated font. For proportionate fonts, the actual number of characters that fit on a given line may be greater than the value specified. The value must be greater than zero. The default value depends on the value of the DtNwidth resource. DtNcursorPosition Indicates the position in the DtEditor widget where the current insert cursor is located. This position is determined by the number of characters from the beginning of the text. The first character position is zero. DtNcursorPositionVisible When set to True, this resource specifies that the insert cursor position is marked by a blinking text cursor. DtNdialogTitle Specifies an XmString that appears as part of the titles for the dialogs displayed by the DtEditor widget. If this resource is non- NULL, it is used as the prefix of the DtNeditable When set to True, this resource indicates that the user can edit the text; otherwise, it prohibits the user from editing the text. DtNlabelFontList Specifies the font list used for the labels for DtEditor (the labels appear in the DtEditor dialogs). If this value is NULL at initialization, it is initialized by looking up the parent hierarchy of the widget for an ancestor that is a subclass of the XmBulletinBoard, VendorShell or XmMenuShell widget class. If such an ancestor is found, the font list is initialized to the XmNlabelFontList of the ancestor widget. If no such ancestor is found, the default is implementation dependent. DtNmaxLength Specifies the maximum length of the text string that can be entered into the DtEditor widget from the keyboard. This value must be non-negative. Strings entered using the &cdeman.DtEditorSetContents; or &cdeman.DtEditorSetContentsFromFile; functions ignore this resource. DtNoverstrike When set to False, characters typed into the DtEditor widget are inserted at the position of the insertion cursor. This is the default behavior. If set to True, characters typed into the DtEditor widget replace the characters that directly follow the insertion cursor. When the end of the line is reached, characters are appended to the end of the line. DtNoverstrikeIndicatorLabel appears in the status line whenever DtNoverstrike is True. ]]> DtNrows Specifies the initial height of the edit window of the DtEditor widget measured in character heights. The value must be greater than zero. DtNscrollHorizontal When set to True, this resource adds a ScrollBar that allows the user to scroll horizontally through text. DtNscrollLeftSide When set to True, this resource indicates that the vertical ScrollBar should be placed on the left side of the scrolled edit window. This attribute is ignored if DtNscrollVertical is False. The default value may depend on the value of the XmNstringDirection resource. DtNscrollTopSide When set to True, this resource indicates that the horizontal ScrollBar should be placed on the top side of the scrolled edit window. This attribute is ignored if DtNscrollHorizontal is False. DtNscrollVertical When set to True, this resource adds a ScrollBar that allows the user to scroll vertically through text. DtNshowStatusLine When set to True, the DtEditor widget displays a status line below the edit window. The status line contains a field that displays the current line number of the insert cursor, total number of lines in the document, and whether the DtEditor widget is in overstrike mode. The user can enter a line number in the line number display to go directly to that line. The status line also includes a Motif Text Field widget (XmTextField) for displaying application supplied messages. This field is a convenient way for an application to display status and feedback about the document being edited. The Text Field ID is retrieved using &cdeman.DtEditorGetMessageTextFieldID;. A message is displayed by setting the XmNvalue or XmNvalueWcs resource of this widget. If the Text field is not needed, it can be unmanaged by calling XtUnmanageWidget(3) with its ID. DtNspellFilter Specifies the filter used to identify spelling errors. The &cdeman.DtEditorInvokeSpellDialog; function filters the contents of a DtEditor widget through the filter specified by DtNspellFilter. The filter specified should accept a file name and produce a list of misspelled and unrecognized words in this file on standard out. The default filter is spell(1). ]]> DtNtextBackground Specifies the background of the edit window and the text fields for DtEditor (the text fields appear in the DtEditor dialogs). DtNtextDeselectCallback Specifies a function called whenever the selection becomes NULL (that is, no text is selected within the edit area). The reason sent by the callback is DtEDITOR_TEXT_DESELECT. DtNtextFontList Specifies the font list used for the edit window and the text fields for DtEditor (the text fields appear in the DtEditor dialogs). If this value is NULL at initialization, it is initialized by looking up the parent hierarchy of the widget for an ancestor that is a subclass of the XmBulletinBoard or VendorShell widget class. If such an ancestor is found, the font list is initialized to the XmNtextFontList of the ancestor widget. If no such ancestor is found, the default is implementation dependent. DtNtextForeground Specifies the foreground of the edit window and the text fields for DtEditor (the text fields appear in the DtEditor dialogs). DtNtextSelectCallback Specifies a function called whenever the selection becomes non-NULL (that is, some text is selected within the edit area). The reason sent by the callback is DtEDITOR_TEXT_SELECT. DtNtextTranslations Adds translations to the edit window. Translations specified with DtNtextTranslations override any duplicate translations defined for the edit window. DtNtopCharacter Displays the line that contains the position of text at the top of the scrolled edit window. The line is displayed at the top of the DtEditor widget without shifting the text left or right. The position is determined by the number of characters from the beginning of the text. The first character position is zero. XtGetValues(3) for DtNtopCharacter returns the position of the first character in the line that is displayed at the top of the DtEditor widget. DtNwordWrap Indicates that text not go off the right edge of the window, but that lines are broken at word breaks with soft line feeds when they reach the right edge of the window. Word wrap affects only the visual appearance of the contents of a DtEditor widget. The line breaks (soft line feeds) are not physically inserted into the text. The DtEditor widget supports substituting newlines when the contents of the widget are retrieved or saved to a file (see &cdeman.DtEditorGetContents; and &cdeman.DtEditorSaveContentsToFile;).

If this action is called with an argument of extend, it moves the insertion cursor, as in the case of no argument, and extends the current selection. forward-word ( extend) If this action is called with no argument, it moves the insertion cursor to the first whitespace character or end-of-line following the next non-whitespace character. If the insertion cursor is already at the end of a word, this action moves the insertion cursor to the end of the next word. This action may have different behavior in a locale other than the C locale. If called with an argument of extend, this action moves the insertion cursor, as in the case of no argument, and extends the current selection. go-to-line ( ) This action moves the keyboard focus to the Current Line text field to allow the user to move the insertion cursor to a new line. This action is only valid if DtNshowStatusLine has a value of True. For a description of the status line, see the Editor Status Line heading in this manual page. ]]> Help ( ) This action calls the callbacks for XmNhelpCallback if any exist. If there are no help callbacks for this widget, this action calls the help callbacks for the nearest ancestor that has them. insert-string ( string) This action deletes the entire selection if there is a non-NULL selection and the cursor is not disjoint from it. It inserts string before the insertion cursor. key-select ( direction) If this action is called with an argument of right, it moves the insertion cursor one character to the right and extends the current selection. If this action is called with an argument of left, it moves the insertion cursor one character to the left and extends the current selection. If this action is called with no argument, it extends the current selection. newline-and-backup ( ) If there is a non-NULL selection and the cursor is not disjoint from it, this action deletes the entire selection, inserts a newline just before the insertion cursor and repositions the insertion cursor to the end of the line before the newline. newline-and-indent ( ) If there is a non-NULL selection and the cursor is not disjoint from it, this action deletes the entire selection, inserts a newline and then the same number of whitespace characters as at the beginning of the previous line. next-page ( extend) If this action is called with no argument, it moves the insertion cursor forward one page. If this action is called with an argument of extend, it moves the insertion cursor, as in the case of no argument, and extends the current selection. page-left ( ) This action scrolls the viewing window left one page of text. page-right ( ) This action scrolls the viewing window right one page of text. paste-clipboard ( ) This action pastes the contents of the clipboard before the insertion cursor. previous-page ( extend) If this action is called with no argument, it moves the insertion cursor back one page. If this action is called with an argument of extend, it moves the insertion cursor, as in the case of no argument, and extends the current selection. process-cancel ( ) This action cancels the current extend-adjust or secondary-adjust operation and leaves the selection state as it was before the operation; otherwise, (and if the parent is a manager) it passes the event to the parent. process-down ( ) This action moves the insertion cursor down one line. process-shift-down ( ) This action moves the insertion cursor down one line, extending the current selection. process-shift-up ( ) This action moves the insertion cursor up one line, extending the current selection. process-up ( ) This action moves the insertion cursor up one line. select-all ( ) Selects all text. toggle-insert-mode ( ) This action toggles the state of the text insertion mode. By default, characters typed into the DtEditor widget are inserted at the position of the insertion cursor. In overstrike mode, characters entered into the DtEditor widget replace the characters that directly follow the insertion cursor. In overstrike mode, characters are appended to the end of the line when the end of a line is reached. quote-next-character ( ) This action treats the next typed character as a special character and inserts it into the text without interpreting it. Enables the insertion of special instructional characters or special language characters, such as the character marking a form feed or the umlaut used in German text. undo-edit ( ) This action undoes the last change (deletion or insertion) made to the text. A change consists of either a set of consecutive insertions, or a set of consecutive deletions followed by up to one set of consecutive insertions. An insertion is consecutive if there have been no intervening deletions, and it is continuing forward from the same point. A deletion is consecutive if there have been no intervening insertions, and its start or end position is coincidental with the last deletion (that is, the deletion is continuing from the same point, either forward or backward). Undoing an edit once restores the original text. Undoing an edit twice restores the last change. The Widget Library contains a number of functions that apply to the DtEditor widget.
