According to the Motif Style Guide Revision 1.0 two types of control
boxes: list boxes and entry boxes is currently used.

In the OSF/Motif Style Guide from Prentice Hall the list boxes is
descripbed on page 5-4 and 5-5.

My question is:
1.  What is the widget name of this list box? (is it a XmSelectionBox).

2.  Is the speed-search function a default function of this widget?
    (Incremental search through the list, when the user press one or
    more letters).

3.  If not, how do I implement this function in my application, I can't
    find any Motif functions for incremental string compare. (If you
    have an example, please email me).

Thanks in advance.
