Hello,


Our application requires us to capture keypad presses for all windows
in a number of applications.  We are trying to use action translation
tables to implement this.  We have only succeeded by assigning the
translation table to every individual widget in all windows in a single
application.  The Xt calls we make are included below.

It would be much more convenient if we could assign the translation
table to a class of widgets rather than individual widget instantiations,
and also accomplish it for MULTIPLE applications.  If someone could
describe how do this it would be greatly appreciated.

Platform: Sun Sparc w/ X11R4 & Motif 1.1.4

static XtActionsRec actionsTable[] = {
        {"up", do_up},
        {"right", do_right},
        {"middle", do_middle},
        {"left", do_left},
        {"down", do_down},
	{"bye", quit},
};

static char defaultTranslations[] = 
		"<Key>KP_8: up() \n\
		 <Key>KP_6: right() \n\
		 <Key>KP_5: middle() \n\
		 <Key>KP_4: left() \n\
		 <Key>KP_2: down() \n\
		 <Key>KP_1: bye()"; 

XtTranslations	trans_table, trans_table2;

(. . .)

    XtAddActions(actionsTable, XtNumber(actionsTable));
    trans_table = XtParseTranslationTable(defaultTranslations);

    widget = XtCreateManagedWidget("msg", xmPushButtonWidgetClass,
		form, wargs, n);

    XtOverrideTranslations(widget, trans_table);
