RXS_StartComposeEngine()

This subprocedure initializes the compose engine with a specific template file. This is utilized primarily to build XML but could be used to build any type of character data.

     D                                     Options(*Varsize)

Pass in an RXS_ComposeDS_t to control how the composition engine functions.
