Description
XGetCommand() reads the XA_WM_COMMAND property from the specified window and returns a string list. If the XA_WM_COMMAND property exists, it is of type XA_STRING and format 8. If sufficient memory can be allocated to contain the string list, XGetCommand() fills in the argv_return and argc_return arguments and returns a non-zero status. If the data returned by the server is in the Latin Portable Character Encoding, then the returned strings are in the Host Portable Character Encoding. Otherwise, the result is implementation-dependent. Otherwise, it returns a zero status. If the data returned by the server is in the Latin Portable Character Encoding, then the returned strings are in the Host Portable Character Encoding. Otherwise, the result is implementation-dependent. To free the memory allocated to the string list, use XFreeStringList().
