I have a question about the Athena Widget Set. When using the asciiDiskWidgetClass I am finding out that when I specify that I want a horizontal scroll bar (via the XtNtextOptions param) it does not appear. That is, when my text exceeds the right hand side I can not view the text. I would like the scroll bar to appear and am not having much luck getting it to appear. Any help on how to get the horizontal scroll bar to appear would be much appreciated. I am using X11R3. Thanks in advance! Dan Seewer (dsseewe@super.org)

You'll have to put the Text widget inside a Viewport for the time being.
