XMoveResizeWindow()													       XMoveResizeWindow()

Name
  XMoveResizeWindow - change the size and position of a window.

Synopsis
  XMoveResizeWindow(display, w, x, y, width, height)
	Display *display;
	Window w;
	int x, y;
	unsigned int width, height;

Arguments
  display  Specifies a connection to an X server; returned from XOpenDisplay().

  w	   Specifies the ID of the window to be reconfigured.

  x	   Specify the new x and y coordinates of the upper-left pixel of the window's border, relative to the window's parent.
  y
  width    Specify the new width and height in pixels.	These arguments define the interior size of the window.
  height
Description
  XMoveResizeWindow()  moves  or resizes a window or both.  XMoveResizeWindow() does not raise the window.  Resizing a mapped window may lose
  its contents and generate an Expose event on that window depending on the bit_gravity attribute.  Configuring a window may  generate	expo-
  sure events on windows that the window formerly obscured, depending on the new size and location parameters.

  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 and resize takes
  place, and the event will contain the final position and size of the window.	This is only useful in the case of top-level  windows,	since
  the window manager may modify or prevent them being moved or resized.

Errors
  BadValue
  BadWindow
