Is there a "proper" way of putting an XmText
widget in overstrike mode?  Nothing in the
docs I could find.

I guess one idea would be to verify each character
as it's typed in, deleting the character after the
insertion point, and then allowing the new character
to be inserted...

Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance!
