   This is the C interface to the Objective-C (or whatever) Style-oriented HyperText
   class. It is used when a style-oriented text object is available or craeted in order to
   display hypertext.
   
   This module is a part of the W3C Reference Library. However, it is _NOT_ implemented
   anywhere in the library, as it is client (and often platform) specific code. Hence
   these functions mustbe implemented in the client. The Line Mode Browser has the
   implementation in the GridText module.

CREATION AND DELETION

  Create hypertext object
