     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.
