XmRegisterSegmentEncoding(library call) 								   XmRegisterSegmentEncoding(library call)

NAME

       XmRegisterSegmentEncoding  --  A  compound string function that registers a compound text encoding format for a specified font list element
       tag

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       char * XmRegisterSegmentEncoding(
       char *fontlist_tag,
       char *ct_encoding);

DESCRIPTION

       XmRegisterSegmentEncoding registers a compound text encoding format with the specified font list element tag. The  XmCvtXmStringToCT  func-
       tion  uses  this  registry to map the font list tags of compound string segments to compound text encoding formats. Registering a font list
       tag that already exists in the registry overwrites the original entry. You can unregister a font list tag by passing a NULL value  for  the
       ct_encoding parameter.

       fontlist_tag
		 Specifies the font list element tag to be registered. The tag must be a NULL-terminated ISO8859-1 string.

       ct_encoding
		 Specifies  the  compound  text  character set to be used for segments with the font list tag. The value must be a NULL-terminated
		 ISO8859-1 string.  A value of XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG maps the specified font list tag to the code set of the locale.

RETURN

       Returns NULL for a new font list tag or the old ct_encoding value for an already registered font list tag. The application  is  responsible
       for freeing the storage associated with the returned data (if any) by calling XtFree.
