Unix as fileserver
Dear all,
I am a windows user, am not into unix/linux at all.
however, I have a new client who is asking me if unix can act as file server.
i.e. my application imports files from several locations and put them in one location (on a shared folder on the server), so my application will be collecting files from windows based environments and copying them to the share on the server. is this applicable in unix?
NOTE: my application will be installed on windows based machines.
Regards,
Kamel Balquis

xunmapsubwindows
XUnmapWindow(3) XLIB FUNCTIONS XUnmapWindow(3)
NAME
XUnmapWindow, XUnmapSubwindows - unmap windows
SYNTAX
int XUnmapWindow(Display *display, Window w);
int XUnmapSubwindows(Display *display, Window w);
ARGUMENTS
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
w Specifies the window.
DESCRIPTION
The XUnmapWindow function unmaps the specified window and causes the X server to generate an UnmapNotify event. If the specified window is
already unmapped, XUnmapWindow has no effect. Normal exposure processing on formerly obscured windows is performed. Any child window will
no longer be visible until another map call is made on the parent. In other words, the subwindows are still mapped but are not visible
until the parent is mapped. Unmapping a window will generate Expose events on windows that were formerly obscured by it.
XUnmapWindow can generate a BadWindow error.
The XUnmapSubwindows function unmaps all subwindows for the specified window in bottom-to-top stacking order. It causes the X server to
generate an UnmapNotify event on each subwindow and Expose events on formerly obscured windows. Using this function is much more efficient
than unmapping multiple windows one at a time because the server needs to perform much of the work only once, for all of the windows,
rather than for each window.
XUnmapSubwindows can generate a BadWindow error.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
