       char *XLocaleOfFontSet(XFontSet font_set);

       Bool XContextDependentDrawing(XFontSet font_set);

       Bool XContextualDrawing(XFontSet font_set);

       Bool XDirectionalDependentDrawing(XFontSet font_set);

ARGUMENTS

       font_set  Specifies the font set.

       font_name_list_return
                 Returns the list of font names.

       font_struct_list_return
                 Returns the list of font structs.

DESCRIPTION

       The XFontsOfFontSet function returns a list of one or more XFontStructs and font names for the fonts used
       by the Xmb and Xwc layers for the given font set.  A list of pointers to the  XFontStruct  structures  is
       returned  to  font_struct_list_return.   A list of pointers to null-terminated, fully specified font name
       strings in the locale of the font set is returned to  font_name_list_return.   The  font_name_list  order
       corresponds  to  the  font_struct_list  order.   The  number  of XFontStruct structures and font names is
       returned as the value of the function.

       Because it is not guaranteed that a given character will be imaged using a single font glyph, there is no
       provision  for  mapping  a character or default string to the font properties, font ID, or direction hint
       for the font for the character.  The client may access the XFontStruct list to obtain  these  values  for
       all the fonts currently in use.

       Xlib  does  not guarantee that fonts are loaded from the server at the creation of an XFontSet.  Xlib may
       choose to cache font data, loading it only as needed to draw text or compute text dimensions.  Therefore,
       existence  of  the  per_char  metrics  in  the XFontStruct structures in the XFontStructSet is undefined.
       Also, note that all properties in the XFontStruct structures are in the STRING encoding.

       The XFontStruct and font name lists are owned by Xlib and should not be modified or freed by the  client.
       They  will  be freed by a call to XFreeFontSet with the associated XFontSet.  Until freed, their contents
       will not be modified by Xlib.

       The XBaseFontNameListOfFontSet function returns the original base font name list supplied by  the  client
       when  the XFontSet was created.  A null-terminated string containing a list of comma-separated font names
       is returned as the value of the  function.   White  space  may  appear  immediately  on  either  side  of
       separating commas.

       If  XCreateFontSet  obtained  an  XLFD name from the font properties for the font specified by a non-XLFD
       base name, the XBaseFontNameListOfFontSet function will return the XLFD name instead of the non-XLFD base
       name.

       The  base  font name list is owned by Xlib and should not be modified or freed by the client.  It will be
       freed by a call to XFreeFontSet with the associated XFontSet.  Until freed,  its  contents  will  not  be
       modified by Xlib.

       The  XLocaleOfFontSet function returns the name of the locale bound to the specified XFontSet, as a null-
       terminated string.

       The returned locale name string is owned by Xlib and should not be modified or freed by the  client.   It
       may  be  freed  by  a  call  to  XFreeFontSet  with the associated XFontSet.  Until freed, it will not be
       modified by Xlib.

       The XContextDependentDrawing function returns True if  the  drawing  functions  implement  implicit  text
       directionality  or if text drawn with the font_set might include context-dependent drawing; otherwise, it
       returns False.

       The XContextualDrawing function returns True if text drawn with  the  font  set  might  include  context-
       dependent drawing; otherwise, it returns False.

       The  XDirectionalDependentDrawing  function returns True if the drawing functions implement implicit text
       directionality; otherwise, it returns False.
