       read a window's WM_ICON_NAME property

SYNTAX
       void   XSetWMIconName(Display   *display,   Window   w,	 XTextProperty
	      *text_prop);

       Status	XGetWMIconName(Display	 *display,   Window  w,	 XTextProperty
	      *text_prop_return);

       int XSetIconName(Display	*display, Window w, _Xconst char *icon_name);

       Status XGetIconName(Display *display, Window  w,	 char  **icon_name_re-
	      turn);

ARGUMENTS
       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       icon_name Specifies  the	 icon  name, which should be a null-terminated
		 string.

       icon_name_return
		 Returns the window's icon name, which	is  a  null-terminated
		 string.

       text_prop Specifies the XTextProperty structure to be used.

       text_prop_return
		 Returns the XTextProperty structure.

       w	 Specifies the window.

DESCRIPTION
       The  XSetWMIconName  convenience	function calls XSetTextProperty	to set
       the WM_ICON_NAME	property.

       The XGetWMIconName convenience function calls XGetTextProperty  to  ob-
       tain  the  WM_ICON_NAME	property.  It returns a	nonzero	status on suc-
       cess; otherwise,	it returns a zero status.

       The XSetIconName	function sets the name to be displayed in  a  window's
       icon.

       XSetIconName can	generate BadAlloc and BadWindow	errors.

       The XGetIconName	function returns the name to be	displayed in the spec-
       ified window's icon.  If	it succeeds, it	returns	a nonzero status; oth-
       erwise,	if  no icon name has been set for the window, it returns zero.
       If  you	never  assigned	 a  name  to  the  window,  XGetIconName  sets
       icon_name_return	to NULL.  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 implementa-
       tion-dependent.	When finished with it, a client	 must  free  the  icon
       name string using XFree.

       XGetIconName can	generate a BadWindow error.

PROPERTIES
       WM_ICON_NAME
		 The name to be	used in	an icon.

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

       BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not	name a defined Window.
