NAME
       XtGetGC, XtReleaseGC - obtain and destroy a sharable GC

SYNTAX
       GC XtGetGC(Widget w, XtGCMask value_mask, XGCValues *values);

       void XtReleaseGC(Widget w, GC gc);

ARGUMENTS
       gc	 Specifies the GC to be deallocated.

       values	 Specifies the actual values for this GC.

       value_mask
		 Specifies which fields of the values are specified.

       w	 Specifies the widget.

DESCRIPTION
       The XtGetGC function returns a sharable, read-only GC.  The parameters
       to this function are the same as those for XCreateGC except that a
       widget is passed instead of a display.  XtGetGC shares only GCs in
       which all values in the GC returned by XCreateGC are the same.  In
       particular, it does not use the value_mask provided to determine which
       fields of the GC a widget considers relevant.  The value_mask is used
       only to tell the server which fields should be filled in with widget
       data and which it should fill in with default values.  For further
       information about value_mask and values, see XCreateGC in the Xlib - C
       Language X Interface.

       The XtReleaseGC function deallocate the specified shared GC.
