NAME
       XGetAtomName - returns the name associated with the specified atom

SYNTAX
       P char *XGetAtomName(display, atom)
	     Display *display;
	     Atom atom;

ARGUMENTS
       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       atom	 Specifies the atom for the property name you want returned.

DESCRIPTION
       The XGetAtomName function returns the name associated with the specified atom.  If the data returned by the server is in the Latin Portable
       Character Encoding, then the returned string is in the Host Portable Character Encoding.  Otherwise, the result is implementation depen-
       dent.  To free the resulting string, call XFree.

       XGetAtomName can generate a BadAtom error.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadAlloc  The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.

       BadAtom	 A value for an Atom argument does not name a defined Atom.

       BadValue  Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.	Unless a specific range is specified for an argu-
		 ment, the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted.  Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can generate this
		 error.
