Hi!

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to embed OLIT widgets in an XView application. 
I have written an XView program and I want to add a text editor to it. However, XView's
text subwindows don't offer any of the features that I want (underlining, boxing text).
My question is: can I create a canvas using guide and then use the OLIT TEXTEDIT widget
to manipulate text in that canvas? I don't want to write a custom text editor from 
scratch?

Any respones at all would be appreciated.
