DtEditorGoToLine(3)
CDE
NAME
  DtEditorGoToLine - move the insert cursor for a DtEditor widget to a
  specified line

SYNOPSIS
  #include <Editor.h>
  void DtEditorGoToLine(Widget widget
			int lineNumber);

DESCRIPTION
  The DtEditorGoToLine function moves the insert cursor for the DtEditor
  widget to the beginning of the line specified by the lineNumber argument.
  The cursor can be moved to the last line by specifying DtEDITOR_LAST_LINE
  as the line number. If the line is not currently on-screen, the contents
  for the DtEditor widget are scrolled to display the new insertion position.

  The lineNumber argument is the number of the line in the file, counting
  from 1. If the lineNumber argument is less than 1, the insert cursor is
  placed at the beginning of the first line. If the argument is greater than
  the total number of lines, the cursor is placed at the last line of text.

  The insert cursor can be moved to a specific character position with
  DtEditorSetInsertionPosition(3). The DtNtopCharacter resource can be used
  to control which line is displayed at the top of the DtEditor widget.

  The widget argument specifies the DtEditor widget ID.

  The lineNumber argument specifies the line number within the DtEditor
  widget.

  For a complete definition of the DtEditor widget and its associated
  resources, see DtEditor(3).

RETURN VALUE
  The DtEditorGoToLine function returns no value.
