I am trying to use the XmFileSelectionBox widget for a task related to
file selection, but with a completely re-defined behaviour.  I can get the
Filter events without any trouble, and reset the dirList and fileList
fields, but I can't get the Filter text field to display the pattern that
I want after the user makes a selection in the dirList.  I create the pattern 
that I want displayed, but the pattern that actually is displayed is the 
pattern that I want appended to the end of the field that is selected in 
the dirList.  I figure that some default behaviour is still active, but I
can't figure out how to override this.  Anyone out there have any ideas?
Many thanks in advance.
