Xlib − C Language X Interface

Xlib − C LibraryX11, Release 6.7 DRAFTFor fonts defined with linear indexing rather than 2-byte matrix indexing, each XChar2b structureis interpreted as a 16-bit number with byte1 as the most significant byte.Both functions use these GC components: function, plane-mask, fill-style, font, subwindowmode,clip-x-origin, clip-y-origin, and clip-mask. They also use these GC mode-dependent components:foreground, background, tile, stipple, tile-stipple-x-origin, and tile-stipple-y-origin.XDrawText and XDrawText16 can generate BadDrawable, BadFont, BadGC, and Bad-Match errors.8.6.2.
