.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBXmClipboardCopyByName\fP copies the actual data for a data item
that was previously passed by name to the clipboard\&. Data is
considered to be passed by name when a call to \fBXmClipboardCopy\fP
is made with a NULL buffer parameter\&. Additional calls to this
function append new data to the existing data\&.
.IP "\fIdisplay\fP" 10
Specifies a pointer to the \fBDisplay\fR structure that was returned in a
previous call to \fBXOpenDisplay\fP or \fBXtDisplay\fP\&.
.IP "\fIwindow\fP" 10
Specifies the window ID of a widget that relates the application window to the
clipboard\&. The widget\&'s window ID can be obtained through
\fBXtWindow\fP\&.
The same application instance should pass the same window ID to each
clipboard function it calls\&.
.IP "\fIdata_id\fP" 10
Specifies an identifying number assigned to the data item that uniquely
identifies the data item and the format\&. This number was assigned by
\fBXmClipboardCopy\fP to the data item\&.
.IP "\fIbuffer\fP" 10
Specifies the buffer from which the clipboard copies the data\&.
.IP "\fIlength\fP" 10
Specifies the number of bytes in the data item\&.
.IP "\fIprivate_id\fP" 10
Specifies the private data that the application wants to store with the
data item\&.
.SH "RETURN"
.IP "\fBXmClipboardSuccess\fP" 10
The function was successful\&.
.IP "\fBXmClipboardLocked\fP" 10
The function failed because the clipboard was locked by another
application\&. The application can continue to call the function again with
the same parameters until the lock goes away\&. This gives the application
the opportunity to ask if the user wants to keep trying or to give up
on the operation\&.
