char *tag;
XmFontType type;
XtPointer font;

DESCRIPTION

XmFontListEntryCreate creates a font list entry that contains either a font or font set and is identified by a tag.

tag 

Specifies a NULL terminated string for the tag of the font list entry. The tag may be specified as XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG, which is used to identify the default font list element in a font list.

type 

Specifies whether the font argument is a font structure or a font set. Valid values are XmFONT_IS_FONT and XmFONT_IS_FONTSET.

font 

Specifies either an XFontSet returned by XCreateFontSet or a pointer to an XFontStruct returned by XLoadQueryFont.

The toolkit does not copy the X Font structure specified by the font argument. Therefore, an application programmer must not free XFontStruct or XFontSet until all font lists and/or font entries that reference it have been freed.

RETURN VALUE

Returns a font list entry.
