XStoreName(3X11)        COMMAND REFERENCE        XStoreName(3X11)



NAME
     XStoreName, XFetchName - set or get window names

SYNOPSIS
     XStoreName(display, w, window_name)
           Display *display;
           Window w;
           char *window_name;

     Status XFetchName(display, w, window_name_return)
           Display *display;
           Window w;
           char **window_name_return;

ARGUMENTS
     display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     w         Specifies the window.

     window_name
               Specifies the window name, which should be a
               null-terminated string.

     window_name_return
               Returns a pointer to the window name, which is a
               null-terminated string.

DESCRIPTION
     The XStoreName function assigns the name passed to
     window_name to the specified window.  A window manager can
     display the window name in some prominent place, such as the
     title bar, to allow users to identify windows easily.  Some
     window managers may display a window's name in the window's
     icon, although they are encouraged to use the window's icon
     name if one is provided by the application.

     XStoreName can generate BadAlloc and BadWindow errors.

     The XFetchName function returns the name of the specified
     window.  If it succeeds, it returns nonzero; otherwise, if
     no name has been set for the window, it returns zero.  If
     the WM_NAME property has not been set for this window,
     XFetchName sets window_name_return to NULL.  When finished
     with it, a client must free the window name string using
     XFree.

     XFetchName can generate a BadWindow error.

PROPERTY
