3132.0. "Highlighting with DwtSTextSetSelection" by TOWNS::RUFFIEUX () Wed Jul 25 1990 11:44

    
    DwtSTextSetSelection highlights the specified area of text in a 
    simple text widget.  When it is called for again, the previous area
    is "unhighlighted" and the new area is highlighted.  I need to
    highlight several uncontiguous areas within a simple text widget at
    one time.  Is there any way to do this?  Any comments or suggestions 
    would be appreciated.

I was browsing through the DECWINDOWS_PROGRAMMING conference this morning and 
came across a topic discussing a similar problem. Although I don't remember the
exact topic, there was a pointer there to topic 74.* in the DECWTOOLKIT 
notesfile (CLT::). Apparently there is an unannounced routine 
called DwtSTextHighlight.

Check there and see if that helps.
