       void XmbSetWMProperties(display, w, window_name, icon_name, argv, argc,
			     normal_hints, wm_hints, class_hints)
	     Display *display;
	     Window w;

ARGUMENTS
       argc	 Specifies the number of arguments.

       argv	 Specifies the application's argument list.

       class_hints
		 Specifies the structure to be used.

       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       icon_name Specifies the icon name, which should be a null-terminated
		 string.

       normal_hints
		 Specifies the size hints for the window in its normal state.

       w	 Specifies the window.

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

       wm_hints	 Specifies the structure to be used.

DESCRIPTION
       The convenience function provides a single programming interface for
       setting those essential window properties that are used for communicat‐
       ing with other clients (particularly window and session managers).

       If the window_name argument is non-NULL, calls which in turn, sets the
       WM_NAME property (see section 14.1.4).  If the icon_name argument is
       non-NULL, calls which sets the WM_ICON_NAME property (see section
       14.1.5).	 If the argv argument is non-NULL, calls which sets the
       WM_COMMAND property (see section 14.2.1).  Note that an argc of zero is
       allowed to indicate a zero-length command.  Note also that the hostname
       of this machine is stored using (see section 14.2.2).

       If the normal_hints argument is non-NULL, calls which sets the WM_NOR‐
       MAL_HINTS property (see section 14.1.7).	 If the wm_hints argument is
       non-NULL, calls which sets the WM_HINTS property (see section 14.1.6).

       If the class_hints argument is non-NULL, calls which sets the WM_CLASS
       property (see section 14.1.8).  If the res_name member in the structure
       is set to the NULL pointer and the RESOURCE_NAME environment variable
       is set, then the value of the environment variable is substituted for
       res_name.  If the res_name member is NULL, the environment variable is
       not set, and argv and argv[0] are set, then the value of argv[0],
       stripped of any directory prefixes, is substituted for res_name.

       The convenience function provides a simple programming interface for
       setting those essential window properties that are used for communicat‐
       ing with other clients (particularly window and session managers).

       If the window_name argument is non-NULL, sets the WM_NAME property.  If
       the icon_name argument is non-NULL, sets the WM_ICON_NAME property.
       The window_name and icon_name arguments are null-terminated strings in
       the encoding of the current locale.  If the arguments can be fully con‐
       verted to the STRING encoding, the properties are created with type
       ``STRING'': otherwise, the arguments are converted to Compound Text,
       and the properties are created with type ``COMPOUND_TEXT''.

       If the normal_hints argument is non-NULL, calls which sets the WM_NOR‐
       MAL_HINTS property (see section 14.1.7).	 If the wm_hints argument is
       non-NULL, calls which sets the WM_HINTS property (see section 14.1.6).

       If the argv argument is non-NULL, sets the WM_COMMAND property from
       argv and argc.  Note that an argc of 0 indicates a zero-length command.

       The hostname of this machine is stored using (see section 14.2.2).

       If the class_hints argument is non-NULL, sets the WM_CLASS property.
       If the res_name member in the structure is set to the NULL pointer and
       the RESOURCE_NAME environment variable is set, the value of the envi‐
       ronment variable is substituted for res_name.  If the res_name member
       is NULL, the environment variable is not set, and argv and argv[0] are
       set, then the value of argv[0], stripped of any directory prefixes, is
       substituted for res_name.

       It is assumed that the supplied class_hints.res_name and argv, the
       RESOURCE_NAME environment variable, and the hostname of this machine
       are in the encoding of the locale announced for the LC_CTYPE category.
       (On POSIX-compliant systems, the LC_CTYPE, else LANG environment vari‐
       able).  The corresponding WM_CLASS, WM_COMMAND, and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE
       properties are typed according to the local host locale announcer.  No
       encoding conversion is performed prior to storage in the properties.

       For clients that need to process the property text in a locale, sets
       the WM_LOCALE_NAME property to be the name of the current locale.  The
       name is assumed to be in the Host Portable Character Encoding, and is
       converted to STRING for storage in the property.

       and can generate and errors.

PROPERTIES
       WM_CLASS	 Set by application programs to allow window and session man‐
		 agers to obtain the application's resources from the resource
		 database.

       WM_CLIENT_MACHINE
		 The string name of the machine on which the client applica‐
		 tion is running.

       WM_COMMAND
		 The command and arguments, null-separated, used to invoke the
		 application.

       WM_HINTS	 Additional hints set by the client for use by the window man‐
		 ager.	The C type of this property is

       WM_ICON_NAME
		 The name to be used in an icon.

       WM_NAME	 The name of the application.

       WM_NORMAL_HINTS
		 Size hints for a window in its normal state.  The C type of
		 this property is

DIAGNOSTICS
       The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.

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