xwin_set_window_name(3)

πŸ“¦ version 4.4.3.1, in fedora 43, fedora 44

okay so bestie, this is xwin_set_window_name(3) from the Allegro manual, and it's giving main character energy for your X window's name πŸ’…βœ¨ no cap.

πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

xwin_set_window_name β€” specify the window name and group (or class). It's part of the Allegro game programming library 🫢

πŸ“œ SYNOPSIS πŸ“œ

#include <allegro.h>

void xwin_set_window_name(const char *name, const char *group);

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

Only under X, bestie. This function is only available under X. No X, no window-name magic, and we simply must accept that 😭

It lets you specify the window name and group (or class). And these are lowkey important because they allow the window manager to remember the window attributes (position, layer, etc). The window manager is out here trying to keep your fave window's whole situation together, periodt πŸ‘‘

Important distinction alert! The name and the title of the window are two different things. The title is what appears in the title bar of the window, but usually has no other effects on the behaviour of the application. So don't go thinking name = title, because it's not, fr fr πŸ’€
