Arguments
       direction Specifies the direction (up or down) that you want to circulate the window.  You can pass or

       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       nwindows  Specifies the number of windows to be restacked.

       w	 Specifies the window.

       windows	 Specifies an array containing the windows to be restacked.

Description
       The function raises the specified window to the top of the stack so that no sibling window obscures it.	If the windows are regarded as
       overlapping sheets of paper stacked on a desk, then raising a window is analogous to moving the sheet to the top of the stack but leaving
       its x and y location on the desk constant.  Raising a mapped window may generate events for the window and any mapped subwindows that were
       formerly obscured.

       If the override-redirect attribute of the window is and some other client has selected on the parent, the X server generates a event, and
       no processing is performed.  Otherwise, the window is raised.

       can generate a error.

       The function lowers the specified window to the bottom of the stack so that it does not obscure any sibling windows.  If the windows are
       regarded as overlapping sheets of paper stacked on a desk, then lowering a window is analogous to moving the sheet to the bottom of the
       stack but leaving its x and y location on the desk constant.  Lowering a mapped window will generate events on any windows it formerly
       obscured.

       If the override-redirect attribute of the window is and some other client has selected on the parent, the X server generates a event, and
       no processing is performed.  Otherwise, the window is lowered to the bottom of the stack.

       can generate a error.

       The function circulates children of the specified window in the specified direction.  If you specify raises the lowest mapped child (if
       any) that is occluded by another child to the top of the stack.	If you specify lowers the highest mapped child (if any) that occludes
       another child to the bottom of the stack.  Exposure processing is then performed on formerly obscured windows.  If some other client has
       selected on the window, the X server generates a event, and no further processing is performed.	If a child is actually restacked, the X
       server generates a event.

       can generate and errors.

       The function raises the lowest mapped child of the specified window that is partially or completely occluded by another child.  Completely
       unobscured children are not affected.  This is a convenience function equivalent to with specified.

       can generate a error.

       The function lowers the highest mapped child of the specified window that partially or completely occludes another child.  Completely unob-
       scured children are not affected.  This is a convenience function equivalent to with specified.

       can generate a error.

       The function restacks the windows in the order specified, from top to bottom.  The stacking order of the first window in the windows array
       is unaffected, but the other windows in the array are stacked underneath the first window, in the order of the array.  The stacking order
       of the other windows is not affected.  For each window in the window array that is not a child of the specified window, a error results.

       If the override-redirect attribute of a window is and some other client has selected on the parent, the X server generates events for each
       window whose override-redirect flag is not set, and no further processing is performed.	Otherwise, the windows will be restacked in top to
       bottom order.

       can generate error.

Diagnostics
       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.
