XSetWMClientMachine(3)

💖 NAME 💖

XSetWMClientMachine, XGetWMClientMachine — set or read a window's WM_CLIENT_MACHINE property. Okay so this is the XSetWMClientMachine(3) page from XLIB FUNCTIONS, and it's lowkey just two convenience functions doing their little text-property thing 💅✨

🎀 SYNTAX 🎀

No cap, here are the exact signatures:

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

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

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• display — Specifies the connection to the X server.
• text_prop — Specifies the XTextProperty structure to be used.
• text_prop_return — Returns the XTextProperty structure.
• w — Specifies the window.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The XSetWMClientMachine convenience function calls XSetTextProperty to set the WM_CLIENT_MACHINE property. That's it, bestie — it's giving "small helper, big property energy" 💖

The XGetWMClientMachine convenience function performs an XGetTextProperty on the WM_CLIENT_MACHINE property. It returns a nonzero status on success; otherwise, it returns a zero status. So yeah: nonzero = slay, zero = not today 😭 (but literally, that's the status contract).

👑 PROPERTIES 👑

• WM_CLIENT_MACHINE — The string name of the machine on which the client application is running.

okay that's the whole page, bestie — X Version 11, libX11 1.8.14, and the page is XSetWMClientMachine(3). The source footer doesn't give a date, so I'm not gonna invent one 😭🫶💖
