DESCRIPTION
  The XCreateRegion function creates a new empty region.

  The XSetRegion function sets the clip-mask in the GC to the specified
  region.  The region is specified relative to the drawable's origin.  The
  resulting GC clip origin is implementation dependent.	 Once it is set in
  the GC, the region can be destroyed.

  The XDestroyRegion function deallocates the storage associated with a
  specified region.
