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

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
obtain the WM_ICON_NAME property. It returns a nonzero status on
success; 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
specified window's icon. If it succeeds, it returns a nonzero status;
otherwise, 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
implementation-dependent. When finished with it, a client must free
the icon name string using XFree.
XGetIconName can generate a BadWindow error.
server memory.
BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
