DESCRIPTION

The XSetIconName function sets the name to be displayed in a window’s icon. .PN XSetIconName can generate BadAlloc and BadWindow errors. The XGetIconName function returns the name to be displayed in the specified window’s icon. If it succeeds, it returns nonzero; otherwise, if no icon name has been set for the window, it returns zero. If you never assigned a name to the window, XGetIconName sets icon_name_return to NULL. When finished with it, a client must free the icon name string using XFree. .PN XGetIconName can generate a BadWindow error.
