NAME
  XmTextGetSource - A Text function that accesses the source of the widget

SYNOPSIS
  #include <Xm/Text.h>

  XmTextSource XmTextGetSource (widget)
	  Widget widget;

DESCRIPTION
  XmTextGetSource accesses the source of the Text widget.  Text widgets can
  share sources of text so that editing in one widget is reflected in
  another.  This function accesses the source of one widget so that it can be
  made the source of another widget, using the function XmTextSetSource(3X).

  Setting a new text source destroys the old text source if no other Text
  widgets are using that source. To replace a text source but keep it for
  later use, create an unmanaged Text widget and set its source to the text
  source you want to keep.

  widget
      Specifies the Text widget ID

  For a complete definition of Text and its associated resources, see
  XmText(3X).

RETURN VALUE
  Returns an XmTextSource value that represents the source of the Text
  widget.
