DESCRIPTION

XAddToSaveSet() adds the specified window to the client’s save-set. 

The save-set is a safety net for windows that have been reparented by the window manager, usually to provide a titlebar or other decorations for each application.  When the window manager dies unexpectedly, the windows in the save-set are reparented to their closest living ancestor, so that they remain alive.  See Volume One, Chapter 13, Other Programming Techniques, for more information about save-sets. 

Use XRemoveFromSaveSet() to remove a window from the client’s save-set. 

ERRORS

BadMatchw not created by some other client.
