# Editor Example

This example shows two simple text editors, with most of the program written in Xt. One editor is a Qt QMultiLineEdit, the other is an Athena Widgets text widget. They are bound together in an Xt form widget.

    #include "qxt.h"
    #include <qmultilinedit.h>
    #include <qpainter.h>
    #include <qmessagebox.h>
    #include <X11/Shell.h>
    #include <X11/StringDefs.h>
    #include <X11/Xaw/Form.h>
    #include <X11/Xaw/AsciiText.h>
