- app_context

- timeout
- Specifies
the selection timeout in milliseconds. 
The XtAppGetSelectionTimeout
  function returns the current selection timeout value, in milliseconds.
The selection timeout is the time within which the two communicating  applications
must respond to one another. The initial timeout value is set by the  selectionTimeout
  application resource, or, if selectionTimeout   is not specified, it
defaults to five seconds.
The XtAppSetSelectionTimeout   function sets the
Intrinsics's selection timeout mechanism. Note that most applications should
not set the selection timeout.
