It is used when a style-oriented text object is available or craeted in order to display hypertext. This module is a part of the W3C Sample Code Library. However, it is _NOT_ implemented anywhere in the library, as it is client (and often platform) specific code. Hence these functions mustbe implemented in the client. The Line Mode Browser has the implementation in the GridText module. */ #ifndef HTEXT_H #define HTEXT_H #include "HTAnchor.h" #include "HTStyle.h" #include "HTStruct.h" #ifndef HyperText /* Objective C version defined HyperText */ typedef struct _HText HText; /* Normal Library */ #else @class HText; /* Objective C version for NeXTStep */ #endif extern HText * HTMainText; /* Pointer to current main text */ extern HTParentAnchor * HTMainAnchor; /* Pointer to current text's anchor */ /* CREATION AND DELETION Create hypertext object There are several methods depending on how much you want to specify.
