                                                      specified, then tkwin will not have its own
                                                      cursor;  it will  use  the  cursor  of  its
                                                      parent.

DESCRIPTION

       These  procedures  are  analogous  to the X library procedures with similar names, such as
       XConfigureWindow.  Each one of the above procedures calls the  corresponding  X  procedure
       and also saves the configuration information in Tk's local structure for the window.  This
       allows the information to be retrieved quickly by the application (using  macros  such  as
       Tk_X  and  Tk_Height) without having to contact the X server.  In addition, if no X window
       has actually been created for tkwin yet, these procedures do not  issue  X  operations  or
       cause event handlers to be invoked;  they save the information in Tk's local structure for
       the window;  when the window is created later, the  saved  information  will  be  used  to
       configure the window.

       See  the  X library documentation for details on what these procedures do and how they use
       their arguments.

       In the procedures Tk_ConfigureWindow, Tk_MoveWindow, Tk_ResizeWindow, Tk_MoveResizeWindow,
       and Tk_SetWindowBorderWidth, if tkwin is an internal window then event handlers interested
       in configure events are invoked immediately, before the procedure returns.  If tkwin is  a
       top-level  window  then  the  event  handlers  will be invoked later, after X has seen the
       request and returned an event for it.

       Applications using Tk should never call procedures like XConfigureWindow  directly;   they
       should always use the corresponding Tk procedures.

       The  size  and  location  of  a window should only be modified by the appropriate geometry
       manager for that window and never by a window itself (but  see  Tk_MoveToplevelWindow  for
       moving a top-level window).

       You may not use Tk_ConfigureWindow to change the stacking order of a window (valueMask may
       not contain the CWSibling or CWStackMode bits).  To change the  stacking  order,  use  the
       procedure Tk_RestackWindow.

       The procedure Tk_SetWindowColormap will automatically add tkwin to the TK_COLORMAP_WINDOWS
       property of its nearest top-level ancestor if the new colormap is different from  that  of
       tkwin's parent and tkwin is not already in the TK_COLORMAP_WINDOWS property.

BUGS

       Tk_SetWindowBackgroundPixmap  and Tk_SetWindowBorderPixmap differ slightly from their Xlib
       counterparts in that the pixmap argument may not necessarily be deleted immediately  after
       calling  one of these procedures.  This is because tkwin's window may not exist yet at the
       time of the call, in which case pixmap is merely saved and used later when tkwin's  window
       is  actually created.  If you wish to delete pixmap, then call Tk_MakeWindowExist first to
       be sure that tkwin's window exists and pixmap has been passed to the X server.

       A similar problem occurs for the cursor argument passed to Tk_DefineCursor.  The  solution
       is the same as for pixmaps above: call Tk_MakeWindowExist before freeing the cursor.
