Quote:
A window manager is system software that controls the placement and appearance of windows within a windowing system in a graphical user interface. Most window managers are designed to help provide a desktop environment. They work in conjunction with the underlying graphical system that provides required functionality-support for graphics hardware, pointing devices, and a keyboard, and are often written and created using a widget toolkit.
Few window managers are designed with a clear distinction between the windowing system and the window manager. Every graphical user interface based on a windows metaphor has some form of window management. In practice, the elements of this functionality vary greatly. Elements usually associated with window managers allow the user to open, close, minimize, maximize, move, resize, and keep track of running windows, including window decorators. Many window managers also come with various utilities and features: e.g. docks, task bars, program launchers, desktop icons, and wallpaper.
Hopefully, you know what a window manager is now
From above:

xmovewindow
XMoveWindow() XMoveWindow()
Name
XMoveWindow - move a window.
Synopsis
XMoveWindow(display, w, x, y)
Display *display;
Window w;
int x, y;
Arguments
display Specifies a connection to an X server; returned from XOpenDisplay().
w Specifies the ID of the window to be moved.
x Specify the new x and y coordinates of the upper-left pixel of the window's border (or of the window itself, if it has no border),
y relative to the window's parent.
Description
XMoveWindow() changes the position of the origin of the specified window relative to its parent. XMoveWindow() does not change the mapping
state, size, or stacking order of the window, nor does it raise the window. Moving a mapped window will lose its contents if:
o Its background_pixmap attribute is ParentRelative.
o The window is obscured by nonchildren and no backing store exists.
If the contents are lost, exposure events will be generated for the window and any mapped subwindows. Moving a mapped window will generate
exposure events on any formerly obscured windows.
If the override_redirect attribute of the window is False (see Volume One, Chapter 4, Window Attributes) and the window manager has
selected SubstructureRedirectMask on the parent, then a ConfigureRequest event is sent to the window manager, and no further processing is
performed.
If a client has selected StructureNotifyMask on the window, then a ConfigureNotify event is generated after the move takes place, and the
event will contain the final position of the window. This is only useful in the case of top-level windows, since the window manager may
modify or disallow moves.
