I've been playing around a little with some of the 16 bit fonts that
we have for use with X11R4 on our cluster of Apollo Domain 3500's 
and I would like to know how to specify a character as part of a
string for something like a titlebar.  However, it isn't for a program
that I'm writing.  I know about XChar2b and XDrawString16, but they
aren't what I need since I'm not going to rewrite a window manager.

Basically, after having specified something like k14 as the titlefont
for xterm in a .twmrc for twm v 1.104 89/12/14, how can we specify
characters to go into the title (printable characters, that is)?
We have tried fooling around with different quoting of hex and octal
representation, but without success.  Any helpful hints would be 
appreciated.
