NAME

XBaseFontNameListOfFontSet — get the base font list of a font set. 

SYNOPSIS

char ∗XBaseFontNameListOfFontSet(font_set)
   XFontSet font_set;

ARGUMENTS

font_setSpecifies the font set. 

RETURNS

The base font list string. 

AVAILABILITY

Release 5 and later. 

DESCRIPTION

XBaseFontNameListOfFontSet() returns the original base font name list supplied by the client when the XFontSet was created.  A null-terminated string containing a list of comma-separated font names is returned as the value of the function.  Whitespace may appear immediately on either side of separating commas. 

If XCreateFontSet() obtained an XLFD (X Logical Font Description) name from the font properties for the font specified by a non-XLFD base name, the XBaseFontNameListOfFontSet() function will return the XLFD name instead of the non-XLFD base name. 

The base font name list is owned by Xlib and should not be modified or freed by the client.  It will be freed by a call to XFreeFontSet() on the associated XFontSet.  Until freed, its contents will not be modified by Xlib.
