+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.ZN XDrawLine
+function uses the components of the specified GC to
+draw a line between the specified set of points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).
+It does not perform joining at coincident endpoints.
+For any given line,
+.ZN XDrawLine
+does not draw a pixel more than once.
+If lines intersect, the intersecting pixels are drawn multiple times.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XDrawLines
+function uses the components of the specified GC to draw
+npoints\-1 lines between each pair of points (point[i], point[i+1])
+in the array of
+.ZN XPoint
+structures.
+It draws the lines in the order listed in the array.
+The lines join correctly at all intermediate points, and if the first and last
+points coincide, the first and last lines also join correctly.
+For any given line,
+.ZN XDrawLines
+does not draw a pixel more than once.
+If thin (zero line-width) lines intersect,
+the intersecting pixels are drawn multiple times.
+If wide lines intersect, the intersecting pixels are drawn only once, as though
+the entire
+.ZN PolyLine
+protocol request were a single, filled shape.
+.ZN CoordModeOrigin
+treats all coordinates as relative to the origin,
+and
+.ZN CoordModePrevious
+treats all coordinates after the first as relative to the previous point.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XDrawSegments
+function draws multiple, unconnected lines.
+For each segment,
+.ZN XDrawSegments
+draws a
+line between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).
+It draws the lines in the order listed in the array of
+.ZN XSegment
+structures and does not perform joining at coincident endpoints.
+For any given line,
+.ZN XDrawSegments
+does not draw a pixel more than once.
+If lines intersect, the intersecting pixels are drawn multiple times.
+.LP
+All three functions use these GC components:
+function, plane-mask, line-width,
+line-style, cap-style, fill-style, subwindow-mode,
+clip-x-origin, clip-y-origin, and clip-mask.
+The
+.ZN XDrawLines
+function also uses the join-style GC component.
+All three functions also use these GC mode-dependent components:
+foreground, background, tile, stipple, tile-stipple-x-origin,
+tile-stipple-y-origin, dash-offset, and dash-list.
+.LP
+.ZN XDrawLine ,
+.ZN XDrawLines ,
+and
+.ZN XDrawSegments
+can generate
+.ZN BadDrawable ,
+.ZN BadGC ,
+and
+.ZN BadMatch
+errors.
+.ZN XDrawLines
+can also generate a
+.ZN BadValue
+error.
+.SH STRUCTURES
+The
+.ZN XSegment
+structure contains:
+.LP
+.Ds 0
+.TA .5i
+.ta .5i
+typedef struct {
+ short x1, y1, x2, y2;
+} XSegment;
+.De
+.LP
+All x and y members are signed integers.
+The width and height members are 16-bit unsigned integers.
+You should be careful not to generate coordinates and sizes
+out of the 16-bit ranges, because the protocol only has 16-bit fields
+for these values.
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadDrawable
+A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or Pixmap.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadGC
+A value for a GContext argument does not name a defined GContext.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadMatch
+An
+.ZN InputOnly
+window is used as a Drawable.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadMatch
+Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but fails
+to match in some other way required by the request.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadValue
+Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
+Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined
+by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a set of
+alternatives can generate this error.
