NAME

       XSetCommand, XGetCommand - set or read a window's WM_COMMAND property

SYNOPSIS

       XSetCommand(display, w, argv, argc)
	       Display *display;
	       Window w;
	       char **argv;
	       int argc;

       Status XGetCommand(display, w, argv_return, argc_return)
	       Display *display;
	       Window w;
	       char ***argv_return;
	       int *argc_return;

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies  the  number  of  arguments.	Returns the number of arguments returned.  Specifies the application's argument list.  Returns the
       application's argument list.  Specifies the connection to the X server.	Specifies the window.

DESCRIPTION

       The XSetCommand function sets the command and arguments used to invoke the application. (Typically, argv is the argv  array  of	your  main
       program.) If the strings are not in the Host Portable Character Encoding, the result is implementation dependent.

       XSetCommand can generate BadAlloc and BadWindow errors.

       The  XGetCommand  function  reads  the  WM_COMMAND property from the specified window and returns a string list. If the WM_COMMAND property
       exists, it is of type STRING and format 8. If sufficient memory can be allocated to contain the	string	list,  XGetCommand  fills  in  the
       argv_return and argc_return arguments and returns a nonzero status. Otherwise, it returns a zero status. If the data returned by the server
       is in the Latin Portable Character Encoding, then the returned strings are in the Host Portable Character Encoding. Otherwise,  the  result
       is implementation dependent. To free the memory allocated to the string list, use XFreeStringList.

PROPERTIES

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

DIAGNOSTICS

       The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.  A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
