[comp.windows.x] search and replace in xmh toc window

crouch@axion.bt.co.uk (Chris Rouch) (02/06/90)

I notice that the text widgets search and replace functions (ctrl-s and
ctrl-r) are disabled in the xmh application defaults file, and if they
are re-enabled they don't work. I can understand why replace won't work
(window is read only), but is there any way of making search work?

No, the Search method of the text source object used by the xmh toc was never
implemented.  It could be; see clients/xmh/tsource.c
