DESCRIPTION
       The XmbDrawString, XwcDrawString and Xutf8DrawString functions draw the
       specified text with the foreground pixel.  When the XFontSet has miss‐
       ing charsets, each unavailable character is drawn with the default
       string returned by XCreateFontSet.  The behavior for an invalid code‐
       point is undefined.

       The function Xutf8DrawString is an extension introduced by The XFree86
       Project, Inc. in their 4.0.2 release. Its presence is indicated by the
       macro XHAVEUTF8STRING.
