DESCRIPTION

     added after this position.	 The first character position  is
     zero.  The	last character position	is equal to the	number of
     characters	contained in the widget.

     The widget	argument specifies the DtEditor	widget ID.

     For a complete definition of the  DtEditor	 widget	 and  its
     associated	resources, see DtEditor(3).

RETURN VALUE
     Upon successful  completion,  the	DtEditorGetLastPosition()
     function  returns an XmTextPosition value that indicates the
     last position in the text;	otherwise, it returns NULL.

APPLICATION USAGE
     The position information is given in  terms  of  characters,
     which may differ from the byte position when multi-byte code
     sets are in use.
