       XSetWindowBorderWidth, XWindowChanges - configure windows and window
       changes structure

SYNTAX
       XConfigureWindow(display, w, value_mask, values)
	     Display *display;
	     Window w;
	     unsigned int value_mask;
	     XWindowChanges *values;

       XMoveWindow(display, w, x, y)
	     Display *display;
	     Window w;
	     int x, y;

       XResizeWindow(display, w, width, height)
	     Display *display;
	     Window w;
	     unsigned int width, height;

       XMoveResizeWindow(display, w, x, y, width, height)
	     Display *display;
	     Window w;
	     int x, y;
	     unsigned int width, height;

       XSetWindowBorderWidth(display, w, width)
	     Display *display;
	     Window w;
	     unsigned int width;

ARGUMENTS
       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       value_mask
		 Specifies which values are to be set using information in the
		 values structure.  This mask is the bitwise inclusive OR of
		 the valid configure window values bits.

       values	 Specifies the structure.

       w	 Specifies the window to be reconfigured, moved, or resized..

       width	 Specifies the width of the window border.

       width
       height	 Specify the width and height, which are the interior dimen‐
		 sions of the window.

       x
       y	 Specify the x and y coordinates, which define the new loca‐
		 tion of the top-left pixel of the window's border or the win‐
		 dow itself if it has no border or define the new position of
		 the window relative to its parent.

DESCRIPTION
       The function uses the values specified in the structure to reconfigure
       a window's size, position, border, and stacking order.  Values not
       specified are taken from the existing geometry of the window.

       If a sibling is specified without a stack_mode or if the window is not
       actually a sibling, a error results.  Note that the computations for
       and are performed with respect to the window's final geometry (as con‐
       trolled by the other arguments passed to not its initial geometry.  Any
       backing store contents of the window, its inferiors, and other newly
       visible windows are either discarded or changed to reflect the current
       screen contents (depending on the implementation).

       can generate and errors.

       The function moves the specified window to the specified x and y coor‐
       dinates, but it does not change the window's size, raise the window, or
       change the mapping state of the window.	Moving a mapped window may or
       may not lose the window's contents depending on if the window is
       obscured by nonchildren and if no backing store exists.	If the con‐
       tents of the window are lost, the X server generates events.  Moving a
       mapped window generates events on any formerly obscured windows.

       If the override-redirect flag of the window is and some other client
       has selected on the parent, the X server generates a event, and no fur‐
       ther processing is performed.  Otherwise, the window is moved.

       can generate a error.

       The function changes the inside dimensions of the specified window, not
       including its borders.  This function does not change the window's
       upper-left coordinate or the origin and does not restack the window.
       Changing the size of a mapped window may lose its contents and generate
       events.	If a mapped window is made smaller, changing its size gener‐
       ates events on windows that the mapped window formerly obscured.

       If the override-redirect flag of the window is and some other client
       has selected on the parent, the X server generates a event, and no fur‐
       ther processing is performed.  If either width or height is zero, a
       error results.

       can generate and errors.

       The function changes the size and location of the specified window
       without raising it.  Moving and resizing a mapped window may generate
       an event on the window.	Depending on the new size and location parame‐
       ters, moving and resizing a window may generate events on windows that
       the window formerly obscured.

       If the override-redirect flag of the window is and some other client
       has selected on the parent, the X server generates a event, and no fur‐
       ther processing is performed.  Otherwise, the window size and location
       are changed.

       can generate and errors.

       The function sets the specified window's border width to the specified
       width.

       can generate a error.

STRUCTURES
       The structure contains:

       /* Configure window value mask bits */

       #define	     (1<<0)
       #define	     (1<<1)
       #define	     (1<<2)
       #define	     (1<<3)

       #define	     (1<<4)
       #define	     (1<<5)
       #define	     (1<<6)

       /* Values */

       typedef struct {
	       int x, y;
	       int width, height;
	       int border_width;
	       Window sibling;
	       int stack_mode;
       } XWindowChanges;

       The x and y members are used to set the window's x and y coordinates,
       which are relative to the parent's origin and indicate the position of
       the upper-left outer corner of the window.  The width and height mem‐
       bers are used to set the inside size of the window, not including the
       border, and must be nonzero, or a error results.	 Attempts to configure
       a root window have no effect.

       The border_width member is used to set the width of the border in pix‐
       els.  Note that setting just the border width leaves the outer-left
       corner of the window in a fixed position but moves the absolute posi‐
       tion of the window's origin.  If you attempt to set the border-width
       attribute of an window nonzero, a error results.

       The sibling member is used to set the sibling window for stacking oper‐
       ations.	The stack_mode member is used to set how the window is to be
       restacked and can be set to or

DIAGNOSTICS
       An	 window is used as a Drawable.

       Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but
       fails
		 to match in some other way required by the request.

       Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the
       request.
		 Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the
		 full range defined by the argument's type is accepted.	 Any
		 argument defined as a set of alternatives can generate this
		 error.

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