I am interested in displaying small arrows in a window. Instead of drawing
them I thought I could use those that are present in the "cursor" font file and
use XDrawImageString to display them.  As you may guess, this doesn't work as I
expected. 

My question is the following: How can I draw a shape that can be found in the
"cursor" font file?

I am using X11R2 on a monochrome Sun 3/50 under SunOS 3.5. I do not use Xt
since I am programming in Ada.

advTHANKSance for your help,

Bertrand Ibrahim
