- The table has variable number of rows and columns: rows and
columns can be created
interactively.
- Each table cell can contain any Motif widget. It is possible to
cut or copy the content
of a cell to paste in another cell.
I guess this is pretty close from what a spreadsheet is supposed to be.
Has anyone developped such a widget ? If so, can we get it ? What are
the conditions ?
Please email if you know anything.

I want to display a table of items with each column separated by a vertical bar. The way I have done it is to use an AsciiText widget (Athena) with tabs set at the beginning of each column (using XawTextSinkSetTabs). I have drawn the column separators in a pixmap the size of the AsciiText widget and set it as a background pixmap. The problem is that tab erases the column separator that it crosses. Also, if I don't use tab and use space to get to the correct position the column separator is also erased. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Is there a better solution? Thanks in advance, dmh ps BTW, is there a specific widget which will do all the above for me (ie a table widget)?
