| I created a menu bar with XmCreateMenuBar.  On the bar I put a cascade 
| button to drop a  pull down menu.  My problem is I want to have an 'about' 
| PushButtonWidget on the bar so that when pressed it pops up a dialog box.
| The program compiles and will run like I want, no problems, except for when
| it first runs I get the message:
| 
|  X Toolkit Warning:
|    Name: menu_bar
|    Class: XmRowColumn
|    Attempt to add wrong type child to a homogeneous RowColumn widget
| 
| I tried setting the XmNentryClass to NULL and the XmNisHomogeneous to 
| False but that accomplished nothing.  Also how can I position the widgets
	You are not allowed to change these values on a RowColumn of type
	XmMENUBAR.
| on the menu bar like this:
| 
| _______________________________________________________________
|   Options     File      Help                            About
| _______________________________________________________________
| with the 'about' to the far right.  I tried setting the XmNx and XmNy
| positions but once again nothing was accomplished.
| 
	Setting the XmNmenuHelpWidget resource of the menubar widget
	to the about-button widget will put it on the right,
	not sure what all else this does though.
| Thanks a lot,
