I have a simple question whose answer seems to be eluding me. I am using X11R2 with uwm. I am not using any toolkits -- just Xlib. I would like to have a window (whose parent is the root window) pop up where I want it without having the user interact with uwm to position it. I have seen applications do this: whenever a geometry spec is included in the run line. However, I have not been able to figure out exactly what they do to make the window map. It seems like the only extra thing they do is a call to XParseGeometry(). Can somebody help me out? Thanx. -chris

Read about XSetStandardProperties in section 9.1 of the Xlib manual.
