          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.

     XSetState(3X)                                  XSetState(3X)



     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.
