DESCRIPTION

       In  general,  a window should never set its own position;  this should be done only by the geometry manger that is responsible for the win-
       dow.  For top-level windows the window manager is effectively the geometry manager;  Tk provides interface code between the application and
       the  window manager to convey the application's desires to the geometry manager.  The desired size for a top-level window is conveyed using
       the usual Tk_GeometryRequest mechanism.	The procedure Tk_MoveToplevelWindow may be used by an application to request a particular position
       for a top-level window;	this procedure is similar in function to the wm geometry Tcl command except that negative offsets cannot be speci-
       fied.  It is invoked by widgets such as menus that want to appear at a particular place on the screen.

       When Tk_MoveToplevelWindow is called it does not immediately pass on the new desired location to the window manager;  it defers this action
       until all other outstanding work has been completed, using the Tk_DoWhenIdle mechanism.
