-XDrawText, XDrawText16, XTextItem, XTextItem16 \- draw polytext text and text drawing structures
-.SH SYNTAX
-.HP
-int XDrawText\^(\^Display *\fIdisplay\fP\^, Drawable \fId\fP\^, GC \fIgc\fP\^,

-\fIgc\fP\^, int \fIx\fP\^, int \fIy\fP\^, XTextItem16 *\fIitems\fP\^, int
-\fInitems\fP\^);
-.SH ARGUMENTS
-.IP \fId\fP 1i
-Specifies the drawable.
-.IP \fIdisplay\fP 1i
-Specifies the connection to the X server.
-.IP \fIgc\fP 1i
-Specifies the GC.
-.IP \fIitems\fP 1i
-Specifies an array of text items.
-.IP \fInitems\fP 1i
-Specifies the number of text items in the array.
-.ds Xy , which are relative to the origin of the specified drawable \
-and define the origin of the first character
-.IP \fIx\fP 1i
-.br
-.ns
-.IP \fIy\fP 1i
-Specify the x and y coordinates\*(Xy.
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.ZN XDrawText16
-function is similar to
-.ZN XDrawText
-except that it uses 2-byte or 16-bit characters.
-Both functions allow complex spacing and font shifts between counted strings.
-.LP
-Each text item is processed in turn.
-A font member other than
-.ZN None
-in an item causes the font to be stored in the GC
-and used for subsequent text.
-A text element delta specifies an additional change
-in the position along the x axis before the string is drawn.
-The delta is always added to the character origin
-and is not dependent on any characteristics of the font.
-Each character image, as defined by the font in the GC, is treated as an
-additional mask for a fill operation on the drawable.
-The drawable is modified only where the font character has a bit set to 1.
-If a text item generates a
-.ZN BadFont
-error, the previous text items may have been drawn.
-.LP
-For fonts defined with linear indexing rather than 2-byte matrix indexing,
-each
-.ZN XChar2b
-structure is interpreted as a 16-bit number with byte1 as the
-most significant byte.
-.LP
-Both functions use these GC components:
-function, plane-mask, fill-style, font, subwindow-mode,
-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.
-.LP
-.ZN XDrawText
-and
-.ZN XDrawText16
-can generate
-.ZN BadDrawable ,
-.ZN BadFont ,
-.ZN BadGC ,
-and
-.ZN BadMatch
-errors.
-.SH STRUCTURES
-The
-.ZN XTextItem
-and
-.ZN XTextItem16
-structures contain:

-typedef struct {
- char *chars; /\&* pointer to string */

-} XTextItem16;
-.De
-.LP
-If the font member is not
-.ZN None ,
-the font is changed before printing and also is stored in the GC.
-If an error was generated during text drawing,
-the previous items may have been drawn.
-The baseline of the characters are drawn starting at the x and y
-coordinates that you pass in the text drawing functions.
-.LP
-For example, consider the background rectangle drawn by
-.ZN XDrawImageString .
-If you want the upper-left corner of the background rectangle
-to be at pixel coordinate (x,y), pass the (x,y + ascent)
-as the baseline origin coordinates to the text functions.
-The ascent is the font ascent, as given in the
-.ZN XFontStruct
-structure.
-If you want the lower-left corner of the background rectangle
-to be at pixel coordinate (x,y), pass the (x,y \- descent + 1)
-as the baseline origin coordinates to the text functions.
-The descent is the font descent, as given in the
-.ZN XFontStruct
-structure.
-.SH DIAGNOSTICS
-.TP 1i
-.ZN BadDrawable
-A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or Pixmap.
-.TP 1i
-.ZN BadFont
-A value for a Font or GContext argument does not name a defined Font.

-.ZN BadGC
-A value for a GContext argument does not name a defined GContext.

-.ZN BadMatch
-An
