- does anyone know a clever way of disguising a PANEL_BUTTON as a piece of
- text? The reason I ask is that I have an application that has a PANEL_LIST
- with four columns of data and a label at the top of each column. I would like
- to be able to sort the data depending on which column label the user clicks
- on. Obviously I could just put a button at the top of each column but a
- piece of text that doubles as a button would be much more elegant. I could
- probably create a new type of button using pure X11R4 but I wouldn't know
- where to start.

- Any ideas??

- ps I would be interested in corresponding with anyone who knows a bit about
- combining xview and X11.
