NAME
     XSetWMHints, XGetWMHints - set or get window manager hints

SYNTAX
     XSetWMHints(display, w, wmhints)
           Display *display;
           Window w;
           XWMHints *wmhints;


     XWMHints *XGetWMHints(display, w)
           Display *display;
           Window w;

ARGUMENTS
     display   Specifies the connection to the XWIN server.

     w         Specifies the window.

     wmhints   Specifies a pointer to the window manager hints.

DESCRIPTION
     The XSetWMHints function sets the window manager hints that
     include icon information and location, the initial state of
     the window, and whether the application relies on the window
     manager to get keyboard input.

     XSetWMHints can generate BadAlloc and BadWindow errors.

     The XGetWMHints function reads the window manager hints and
     returns NULL if no WM_HINTS property was set on the window
     or a pointer to a XWMHints structure if it succeeds.  When
     finished with the data, free the space used for it by cal-
     ling XFree.

     XGetWMHints can generate a BadWindow error.

PROPERTY
     WM_HINTS

DIAGNOSTICS
     BadAlloc  The server failed to allocate the requested
               resource or server memory.

     BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a
               defined Window.
