- I am writting an application using Xt Intrinsics and Athena Widget
- sets. In the application, there is an input action (add by calling
- XAppAddInput() ) which displayes the content of a disk file to an
- asciiTextWidget. The disk file is constantly being updated when the
- application is running. Now the problem is, occasionally, those
- invisible special character (invisible in the disk file, i.e.) (such as
- ^B^T etc) got displayed in the asciitextwidget window. Could some
- X-perts on the net explain to me why this happened, and how to solve
- the porblem? I thought there might be some resource I could set so
- those invisible charaters will not be displayed, but I could not find
- such resource in my manual.
-
- Any help will be sincerly appreciated.
