NAME

       XmTextCut  --  A Text function that copies the primary selection to the
       clipboard and deletes the selected text


SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Text.h>
       Boolean XmTextCut(
       Widget widget,
       Time time);


DESCRIPTION

       XmTextCut copies the primary selected text to the  clipboard  and  then
       deletes  the  primary  selected  text.  This routine calls the widget's
       XmNvalueChangedCallback and  verification  callbacks,  either  XmNmodi-
       fyVerifyCallback  or XmNmodifyVerifyCallbackWcs, or both. If both veri-
       fication callback lists are registered, the procedures of the  XmNmodi-
       fyVerifyCallback  list  are  executed  first  and the resulting data is
       passed to the XmNmodifyVerifyCallbackWcs callbacks.

       This routine calls the XmNconvertCallback procedures, possibly multiple
       times,  with the selection member of the XmConvertCallbackStruct set to
       CLIPBOARD and with the parm member set to XmMOVE.  If the  transfer  is
       successful,  this  routine then calls the XmNconvertCallback procedures
       for the CLIPBOARD selection and the DELETE target.

       widget    Specifies the Text widget ID.

       time      Specifies the server time at which the selection value is  to
                 be  modified. This should be the time of the event that trig-
                 gered this request.  One source of a valid time stamp is  the
                 function XtLastTimestampProcessed().

       XmText(3).


RETURN

       This function returns False if the primary selection is  NULL,  if  the
       widget does not own the primary selection, if the function is unable to
       gain ownership of the clipboard selection, or if no data is  placed  on
       the clipboard.  Otherwise, it returns True.
