NAME
       XmFontListEntryLoad — A font list function that loads a font or creates
       a font set and creates an accompanying font list entry

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       XmFontListEntry XmFontListEntryLoad(
       Display *display,
       char *font_name,
       XmFontType type,
       char *tag);

DESCRIPTION
       XmFontListEntryLoad loads a font or creates a font  set	based  on  the
       value  of  the  type argument. It creates and returns a font list entry
       that contains the font or font set and the specified tag.

       If the value of type is XmFONT_IS_FONT, the function  uses  the	XtCvt‐
       StringToFontStruct  routine to convert the value of font_name to a font
       struct.	If the value of type is XmFONT_IS_FONTSET, the	function  uses
       the  XtCvtStringToFontSet converter to create a font set in the current
       locale.	XmFontListEntryLoad creates a font list	 entry	that  contains
       the  font or font set derived from the converter.  For more information
       about XtCvtStringToFontStruct and XtCvtStringToFontSet, see  X  Toolkit
       Intrinsics—C Language Interface.

       display	 Specifies the display where the font list will be used.

       font_name Specifies  an X Logical Font Description (XLFD) string, which
		 is interpreted either as a font name or as a base  font  name
		 list.	 A  base font name list is a comma-separated and NULL-
		 terminated string.

       type	 Specifies whether the font_name argument  refers  to  a  font
		 name  or  to  a  base	font  name  list.   Valid  values  are
		 XmFONT_IS_FONT and XmFONT_IS_FONTSET.

       tag	 Specifies the tag of the font list entry to be created.   The
		 tag may be specified as XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG, which is used
		 to identify the default font list element in a font list when
		 specified as part of a resource.

RETURN
       If the specified font is not found, or if the specified font set cannot
       be created, then either an implementation-defined font will  be	opened
       or  a font set will be created, and a warning messge will be generated.
       If no suitable font can be found or a font set cannot be created,  then
       another	message	 will  be generated and the function will return NULL;
       otherwise the function returns a font  list  entry.   If	 the  function
       returns	a  font	 list  entry, the function allocates space to hold the
       font list entry. The application is responsible for managing the	 allo‐
       cated space. The application can recover the allocated space by calling
       XmFontListEntryFree.
