Name
       DwtString - Creates a compound-string.

Syntax
       DwtCompString DwtString(text, charset, direction_r_to_l)
	    char *text;
	    unsigned long charset;
	    char direction_r_to_l;

Arguments
       text	 Specifies the text string to be converted to a compound-string.

       charset	 Specifies  the  character  set  for  the  compound-string.   Values  for  this  argument  can	be  found  in  the  required  file
		 /usr/include/cda_def.h.

       direction_r_to_l
		 Specifies the direction in which the text is drawn and wraps.	You can pass DwtDirectionLeftDown (text  is  drawn  from  left	to
		 right	and  wraps down); DwtDirectionRightUp (text is drawn from left to right and wraps up); DwtDirectionLeftDown (text is drawn
		 from right to left and wraps down); or DwtDirectionLeftUp (text is drawn from right to left and wraps up).

Description
       The DwtString function creates a compound-string from information in the argument list.	It has a simpler interface than the one  used  for
       DwtCSString.

       DwtString assumes the following default values:

       o    For language the default is DwtLanguageNotSpecified.

       o    For  rend  the default is DwtRendMaskNone.	The space for the resulting compound-string is allocated within the function.  After using
	    this function, you should free this space by calling XtFree.

Return Values
       This function returns the resulting compound-string.  However, it returns a NULL pointer if the text is NULL.
