NAME
       XmDeactivateProtocol -- A VendorShell function that deactivates a
       protocol without removing it

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       #include <Xm/Protocols.h>
       void XmDeactivateProtocol(
       Widget shell,
       Atom property,
       Atom protocol);

DESCRIPTION
       XmDeactivateProtocol deactivates a protocol without removing it.  It
       updates the handlers and the property if the shell is realized. It is
       sometimes useful to allow a protocol's state information (callback
       lists, and so on) to persist, even though the client may choose to
       temporarily resign from the interaction.  The main use of this
       capability is to gray/ungray f.send_msg entries in the MWM system menu.
       To support this capability, protocol is allowed to be in one of two
       states: active or inactive.  If protocol is active and shell is
       realized, property contains the protocol Atom.  If protocol is
       inactive, Atom is not present in the property.

       XmDeactivateWMProtocol is a convenience interface.  It calls
       XmDeactivateProtocol with the property value set to the atom returned
       by interning WM_PROTOCOLS.

       shell     Specifies the widget with which the protocol property is
                 associated

       property  Specifies the protocol property

       protocol  Specifies the protocol atom
