             Display *display;
             ArgList args;
             Cardinal numargs;

ARGUMENTS
       applicationclass
                 Specifies the class name of this application.

       applicationname
                 Specifies the name of the application instance.

                 WM_COMMAND property.

       widgetclass
                 Specifies the widget class that the application top-level

DESCRIPTION
       The XtAppCreateShell function saves the specified application name
       and application class for qualifying all widget resource specifiers.
       The application name and application class are used as the left-most
       components in all widget resource names for this application.
       XtAppCreateShell should be used to create a new logical application
       within a program or to create a shell on another display.  In the
       first case, it allows the specification of a new root in the resource
       hierarchy.  In the second case, it uses the resource database
       associated with the other display.

       Note that the widget returned by XtAppCreateShell has the WM_COMMAND
       property set for session managers (see Chapter 4).
