NAME

       XmFontListGetNextFont  -- A font list function that allows applications
       to access the fonts and character sets in a font list


SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       Boolean XmFontListGetNextFont(
       XmFontContext context,
       XmStringCharSet *charset,
       XFontStruct **font);


DESCRIPTION

       XmFontListGetNextFont accesses the character set and font for the  next
       entry  of the font list. The application first uses the XmFontListInit-
       FontContext routine to create a font  list  context.   The  application
       then calls XmFontListGetNextFont repeatedly with the same context. Each
       succeeding call accesses the next element of the font list.  When  fin-
       ished,  the  application  calls  XmFontListFreeFontContext  to free the
       allocated font list context.

       This routine allocates memory for the character set string that must be
       freed  by  the application.  The function allocates memory for charset.
       The application is responsible for managing the allocated memory.   The
       application can recover the allocated memory by calling XtFree.

       This  function  is  obsolete and exists for compatibility with previous
       releases. It is replaced by XmFontListNextEntry.  If XmFontListGetNext-
       Font is passed a context that contains a font set entry, it will return
       the first font of the font set. The next call to the function will move
       to the next entry in the font list.

       context   Specifies the font list context

       charset   Specifies  a  pointer  to a character set string; the routine
                 returns the character set for the current font list element

       font      Specifies a pointer to a pointer to  a  font  structure;  the
                 routine returns the font for the current font list element


RETURN

       Returns  True  if  the  returned  values  are valid; otherwise, returns
       False.
