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.

Errors
  BadWindow
