the beginning of the text buffer. The first character
position is 0 (zero).

right Specifies the position of the right boundary of text to be
highlighted. This is an integer number of characters from
the beginning of the text buffer. The first character
position is 0 (zero).

XmHIGHLIGHT_NORMAL removes highlighting. A value of

video. A value of XmHIGHLIGHT_SECONDARY_SELECTED highlights
the text using underlining.
