This is Jennifer Wang from GE CRD at Schenectdy, NY. I am currently using X window to write a text editor for a database program. I have a few questions about HP textEdit widget: - Is it possible to change insert mode to override mode. - I use modVerify callback to detect any insertion or deletion. When a character is entered, a callback function is called. The problem is that the character just entered would not show on the screen until the callback routine is done. I have tried XwTextRedraw, XwTextUpdate, and none of them worked. I am wondering if there is any way to force the character on to screen at beginning of the callback routine. My email address is wangj@crd.ge.com. I will be appreciated if you can reply as soon as possible. Thanks. Jennifer Wang
