          Status XGetIconName(display, w, icon_name_return)
                Display *display;
                Window w;
                char **icon_name_return;

     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 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.

     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.
