Detailed Description
       Drawing M-texts on a window.

       The m17n	GUI API	provides functions to draw M-texts.

       The fonts used for drawing are selected automatically based on the
       fontset and the properties of a face. A face also specifies the
       appearance of M-texts, i.e. font	size, color, underline,	etc.

       The drawing format of M-texts can be controlled in a variety of ways,
       which provides powerful 2-dimensional layout facility.

Data Structure Documentation
   MDrawControl
       Type of a text drawing control.

       FIELD DOCUMENTATION:

       unsigned	MDrawControl::as_image

       If nonzero, draw	an M-text as image, i.e. with background filled	with
       background colors of faces put on the M-text. Otherwise,	the background
       is not changed.

       unsigned	MDrawControl::align_head

       If nonzero and the first	glyph of each line has negative	lbearing,
       shift glyphs horizontally to right so that no pixel is drawn to the
       left of the specified position.

       unsigned	MDrawControl::two_dimensional

       If nonzero, draw	an M-text two-dimensionally, i.e., newlines in M-text
       breaks lines and	the following characters are drawn in the next line.
       If <format> is non-NULL,	and the	function returns nonzero line width, a
       line longer than	that width is also broken.

       unsigned	MDrawControl::orientation_reversed

       If nonzero, draw	an M-text to the right of a specified position.

       unsigned	MDrawControl::enable_bidi

       If nonzero, reorder glyphs correctly for	bidi text.

       unsigned	MDrawControl::ignore_formatting_char

       If nonzero, don't draw characters whose general category	(in Unicode)
       is Cf (Other, format).

       unsigned	MDrawControl::fixed_width

       If nonzero, draw	glyphs suitable	for a terminal.	Not yet	implemented.

       unsigned	MDrawControl::anti_alias

       If nonzero, draw	glyphs with anti-aliasing if a backend font driver
       supports	it.

       unsigned	MDrawControl::disable_overlapping_adjustment

       If nonzero, disable the adjustment of glyph positions to	avoid
       horizontal overlapping at font boundary.

       unsigned	int MDrawControl::min_line_ascent

       If nonzero, the values are minimum line ascent pixels.

       unsigned	int MDrawControl::min_line_descent

       If nonzero, the values are minimum line descent pixels.

       unsigned	int MDrawControl::max_line_ascent

       If nonzero, the values are maximum line ascent pixels.

       unsigned	int MDrawControl::max_line_descent

       If nonzero, the values are maximum line descent pixels.

       unsigned	int MDrawControl::max_line_width

       If nonzero, the value specifies how many	pixels each line can occupy on
       the display. The	value zero means that there is no limit. It is ignored
       if <format> is non-NULL.

       unsigned	int MDrawControl::tab_width

       If nonzero, the value specifies the distance between tab	stops in
       columns (the width of one column	is the width of	a space	in the default
       font of the frame). The value zero means	8.

       void(* MDrawControl::format)(int	line, int y, int *indent, int *width)

       If non-NULL, the	value is a function that calculates the	indentation
       and width limit of each line based on the line number LINE and the
       coordinate Y. The function store	the indentation	and width limit	at the
       place pointed by	INDENT and WIDTH respectively.

       The indentation specifies how many pixels the first glyph of each line
       is shifted to the right (if the member <orientation_reversed> is	zero)
       or to the left (otherwise). If the value	is negative, each line is
       shifted to the reverse direction.

       The width limit specifies how many pixels each line can occupy on the
       display.	The value 0 means that there is	no limit.

       LINE and	Y are reset to 0 when a	line is	broken by a newline character,
       and incremented each time when a	long line is broken because of the
       width limit.

       This has	an effect only when <two_dimensional> is nonzero.

       int(* MDrawControl::line_break)(MText *mt, int pos, int from, int to,
       int line, int y)

       If non-NULL, the	value is a function that calculates a line breaking
       position	when a line is too long	to fit within the width	limit. POS is
       the position of the character next to the last one that fits within the
       limit. FROM is the position of the first	character of the line, and TO
       is the position of the last character displayed on the line if there
       were not	width limit. LINE and Y	are the	same as	the arguments to
       <format>.

       The function must return	a character position to	break the line.

       The function should not modify MT.

       The mdraw_default_line_break() function is useful for such a script
       that uses SPACE as a word separator.

       int MDrawControl::with_cursor

       If nonzero, show	the cursor according to	<cursor_width>.

       int MDrawControl::cursor_pos

       Specifies the character position	to display a cursor. If	it is greater
       than the	maximum	character position, the	cursor is displayed next to
       the last	character of an	M-text.	If the value is	negative, even if
       <cursor_width> is nonzero, cursor is not	displayed.

       int MDrawControl::cursor_width

       If nonzero, display a cursor at the character position <cursor_pos>. If
       the value is positive, it is the	pixel width of the cursor. If the
       value is	negative, the cursor width is the same as the underlining
       glyph(s).

       int MDrawControl::cursor_bidi

       If nonzero and <cursor_width> is	also nonzero, display double bar
       cursors;	at the character position <cursor_pos> and at the logically
       previous	character. Both	cursors	have one pixel width with horizontal
       fringes at upper	or lower positions.

       int MDrawControl::partial_update

       If nonzero, on drawing partial text, pixels of surrounding texts	that
       intrude into the	drawing	area are also drawn. For instance, some	CVC
       sequence	of Thai	text (C	is consonant, V	is upper vowel)	is drawn so
       that V is placed	over the middle	of two Cs. If this CVC sequence	is
       already drawn and only the last C is drawn again	(for instance by
       updating	cursor position), the right half of V is erased	if this	member
       is zero.	By setting this	member to nonzero, even	with such a drawing,
       we can keep this	CVC sequence correctly displayed.

       int MDrawControl::disable_caching

       If nonzero, don't cache the result of any drawing information of	an
       M-text.

       MDrawRegion MDrawControl::clip_region

       If non-NULL, limit the drawing effect to	the specified region.

Typedef	Documentation
   typedef void* MDrawWindow
       Window system dependent type for	a window.

       The type	MDrawWindow is for a window; a rectangular area	that works in
       several ways like a miniature screen.

       What it actually	points depends on a window system. A program that uses
       the m17n-X library must coerce the type Drawable	to this	type.

   typedef void* MDrawRegion
       Window system dependent type for	a region.

       The type	MDrawRegion is for a region; an	arbitrary set of pixels	on the
       screen (typically a rectangular area).

       What it actually	points depends on a window system. A program that uses
       the m17n-X library must coerce the type Region to this type.

Variable Documentation
   int mdraw_line_break_option
       Option of line breaking for drawing text.

       The variable mdraw_line_break_option specifies line breaking options by
       logical-or of the members of MTextLineBreakOption. It controls the line
       breaking	algorithm of the function mdraw_default_line_break().
