Editors in a Motif form

This example shows two simple text editors, with most of the program written in Motif. One editor is a Qt QMultiLineEdit, the other is a Motif text widget. They are bound together in a Motif form widget.
Implementation:
#include "qxt.h"
#include <qmultilineedit.h>
#include <qpainter.h>
#include <qmessagebox.h>
#include <X11/Shell.h>
#include <X11/StringDefs.h>
#include <Xm/Form.h>
#include <Xm/Text.h>


static const char* QTEDMSG =
    "This is a Qt widget.\nIt is a QMultiLineEdit.";

static const char* XTEDMSG =
    "This is an Xt widget.\nIt is an xmTextWidgetClass.";

    QMultiLineEdit* mle;

    }
