[comp.windows.x] Adding WM_CHILD

RWS@ZERMATT.LCS.MIT.EDU (Robert Scheifler) (07/05/88)

The current thinking in the window manager group is that the WM_STATE
property (described in the R2 ICCCM) is sufficient.  Window managers
should place a WM_STATE property on the application window.  Clients
like xprop should look down the tree for a window with WM_STATE, and
fall back to using the top-level window if no window has WM_STATE.
