NAME
  DtCreateTerm - create a DtTerm widget

SYNOPSIS
  #include <Dt/Term.h>
  Widget DtCreateTerm(Widget parent,			 String name,
		      ArgList arglist,			   Cardinal
  argcount);

DESCRIPTION
  The DtCreateTerm function creates a terminal emulator widget hierarchy.

  The parent argument specifies the parent widget ID.

  The name argument specifies the name of the created widget.

  The arglist argument specifies the argument list.

  The argcount argument specifies the number of attribute and value pairs in
  the argument list (arglist).

  The DtTerm widget provides the core set of functionality needed to emulate
  an ANSI X3.64-1979- and ISO 6429:1992(E)-style terminal, such as the DEC
  VT220.  This functionality includes text rendering, scrolling, margin and
  tab support, escape sequence parsing and the low-level OS-specific
  interface required to allocate and configure a pty or STREAMS pseudo-
  terminal device and write the system's utmp device.

RETURN VALUE
  Upon successful completion, the DtCreateTerm function returns the DtTerm
  widget ID.
