           GC gc;
           unsigned long foreground, background;
           int function;
           unsigned long plane_mask;

     XSetFunction(display, gc, function)
           Display *display;
           GC gc;
           int function;

     XSetPlaneMask(display, gc, plane_mask)
           Display *display;
           GC gc;
           unsigned long plane_mask;

     XSetForeground(display, gc, foreground)
           Display *display;
           GC gc;
           unsigned long foreground;

     XSetBackground(display, gc, background)
           Display *display;
           GC gc;
           unsigned long background;

ARGUMENTS
     background
               Specifies the background you want to set for the specified GC.

     display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     foreground
               Specifies the foreground you want to set for the specified GC.

     function  Specifies the function you want to set for the specified GC.

     gc        Specifies the GC.

     plane_mask
               Specifies the plane mask.

DESCRIPTION
     The XSetState function sets the foreground, background, plane mask, and
     function components for the specified GC.

     XSetState can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, and BadValue errors.

     XSetFunction sets a specified value in the specified GC.

     XSetFunction can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, and BadValue errors.

     The XSetPlaneMask function sets the plane mask in the specified GC.

     XSetPlaneMask can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.

     The XSetForeground function sets the foreground in the specified GC.

     XSetForeground can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.

     The XSetBackground function sets the background in the specified GC.

     XSetBackground can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.

DIAGNOSTICS
     BadAlloc  The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server
               memory.

     BadGC     A value for a GContext argument does not name a defined
               GContext.

     BadValue  Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted
               by the request.  Unless a specific range is specified for an
               argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is
               accepted.  Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can
               generate this error.
