-
- There are man pages for the Athena widgets in the Standard edition of
- Volume Four, Xt Intrinsics Programming Manual.
- However, the R5 version is not quite out. It will be in March.
-
- As for a tutorial for how to use them, vol 4 covers some of the
- widgets, but not all of them, and not to the depth of Vol 6.
- The R5 version will have a little more coverage of some common
- issues, such as how to make a Text widget operate as a TextField.
- But as far as I know, there is no tutorial available that really
- goes into detail about how to use each Athena widget effectively.
