- An "external client widget" is a widget that is part of another
-program but functions as an Emacs frame. This is intended to be a more
-powerful replacement for standard text widgets.

-Using an External Client Widget
-*******************************
-
- There are three different implementations of the external client
-widget. One is designed for use in Motif applications and is linked
-with the option `-lextcli_Xm'. Another is designed for non-Motif
-applications that still use the X toolkit; it is linked with the option
-`-lextcli_Xt'. The third is designed for applications that do not use
-the X toolkit; it is linked with the option `-lextcli_Xlib'. In order
-to use an external client widget in a client program that uses the X
-toolkit (i.e. either of the first two options described above), simply
-create an instance of widget type ExternalClient and link your program
-with the appropriate library. The corresponding header file is called
-`ExternalClient.h'.
-
- Documentation still needs to be provided for using the raw Xlib
-version of the external client widget.
-
- The external client widget will not do anything until an instance of
-Emacs is told about this particular widget. To do that, call the
-function `make-frame', specifying a value for the frame parameter
-`window-id'. This value should be a string containing the decimal
-representation of the widget's X window ID number (this can be obtained
-by the Xt function `XtWindow()'). In order for the client program to
-communicate this information to Emacs, a method such as sending a
-ToolTalk message needs to be used.
-
- Once `make-frame' has been called, Emacs will create a frame that
-occupies the client widget's window. This frame can be used just like
-any other frame in Emacs.

-External Client Widget Resource Settings
-****************************************
-
- The external client widget is a subclass of the Motif widget
-XmPrimitive and thus inherits all its resources. In addition, the
-following new resources are defined:
-
-`deadShell (class DeadShell)'
- A boolean resource indicating whether the last request to the
- ExternalShell widget that contains the frame corresponding to this
- widget timed out. If true, no further requests will be made (all
- requests will automatically fail) until a response to the last
- request is received. This resource should normally not be set by
- the user.
-
-`shellTimeout (class ShellTimeout)'
- A value specifying how long (in milliseconds) the client should
- wait for a response when making a request to the corresponding
- ExternalShell widget. If this timeout is exceeded, the client
- will assume that the shell is dead and will fail the request and
- all subsequent requests until a response to the request is
- received. Default value is 5000, or 5 seconds.
-
- The shell that contains the frame corresponding to an external client
-widget is of type ExternalShell, as opposed to standard frames, whose
-shell is of type TopLevelShell. The ExternalShell widget is a direct
-subclass of Shell and thus inherits its resources. In addition, the
-following new resources are defined:
-
-`window (class Window)'
- The X window ID of the widget to use for this Emacs frame. This is
- normally set by the call to `x-create-frame' and should not be
- modified by the user.
-
-`deadClient (class DeadClient)'
- A boolean resource indicating whether the last request to the
- corresponding ExternalClient widget timed out. If true, no further
- requests will be made (all requests will automatically fail) until
- a response to the last request is received. This resource should
- normally not be set by the user.
-
-`ClientTimeout (class ClientTimeout)'
- A value specifying how long (in milliseconds) the shell should wait
- for a response when making a request to the corresponding
- ExternalClient widget. If this timeout is exceeded, the shell
- will assume that the client is dead and will fail the request and
- all subsequent requests until a response to the request is
- received. Default value is 5000, or 5 seconds.
-
- Note that the requests that are made between the client and the shell
-are primarily for handling query-geometry and geometry-manager requests
-made by parent or child widgets.

-Motif-Specific Info About the External Client Widget
-****************************************************
-
- By default, the external client widget has navigation type
-`XmTAB_GROUP'.
-
- The widget traversal keystrokes are modified slightly from the
-standard XmPrimitive keystrokes. In particular, `<TAB>' alone does not
-traverse to the next widget (`Ctrl-<TAB>' must be used instead), but
-functions like a normal <TAB> in Emacs. This follows the semantics of
-the Motif text widget. The traversal keystrokes `Ctrl-<TAB>' and
-`Shift-<TAB>' are silently filtered by the external client widget and
-are not seen by Emacs.
