ARGUMENTS
       d	 Specifies the drawable.

       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       gc	 Specifies the GC.

       mode	 Specifies the coordinate mode.	 You can pass or

       npoints	 Specifies the number of points in the array.

       nsegments Specifies the number of segments in the array.

       points	 Specifies an array of points.

       segments	 Specifies an array of segments.

       x1
       y1
       x2
       y2	 Specify the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) to be connected.

DESCRIPTION
       The function uses the components of the specified GC to draw a line
       between the specified set of points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).  It does not
       perform joining at coincident endpoints.	 For any given line, does not
       draw a pixel more than once.  If lines intersect, the intersecting pix‐
       els are drawn multiple times.

       The function uses the components of the specified GC to draw npoints-1
       lines between each pair of points (point[i], point[i+1]) in the array
       of structures.  It draws the lines in the order listed in the array.
       The lines join correctly at all intermediate points, and if the first
       and last points coincide, the first and last lines also join correctly.
       For any given line, does not draw a pixel more than once.  If thin
       (zero line-width) lines intersect, the intersecting pixels are drawn
       multiple times.	If wide lines intersect, the intersecting pixels are
       drawn only once, as though the entire protocol request were a single,
       filled shape.  treats all coordinates as relative to the origin, and
       treats all coordinates after the first as relative to the previous
       point.

       The function draws multiple, unconnected lines.	For each segment,
       draws a line between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).  It draws the lines in the
       order listed in the array of structures and does not perform joining at
       coincident endpoints.  For any given line, does not draw a pixel more
       than once.  If lines intersect, the intersecting pixels are drawn mul‐
       tiple times.

       All three functions use these GC components: function, plane-mask,
       line-width, line-style, cap-style, fill-style, subwindow-mode, clip-x-
       origin, clip-y-origin, and clip-mask.  The function also uses the join-
       style GC component.  All three functions also use these GC mode-depen‐
       dent components: foreground, background, tile, stipple, tile-stipple-x-
       origin, tile-stipple-y-origin, dash-offset, and dash-list.

       and can generate and errors.  can also generate a error.

STRUCTURES
       The structure contains:

       typedef struct {
	       short x1, y1, x2, y2;
       } XSegment;

       All x and y members are signed integers.	 The width and height members
       are 16-bit unsigned integers.  You should be careful not to generate
       coordinates and sizes out of the 16-bit ranges, because the protocol
       only has 16-bit fields for these values.

DIAGNOSTICS
       A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or
       Pixmap.

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

       An	 window is used as a Drawable.

       Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but
       fails
		 to match in some other way required by the request.

       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.
