Description
  XWithdrawWindow() informs the window manager that the specified  window
  and  its  icon  should be unmapped.  It unmaps the specified window and
  sends a synthetic UnmapNotify event to the root window of the specified
  screen.   Window  managers  may  elect  to receive this message and may
  treat it as a request to change the window's state to withdrawn.   When
  a  window  is in the withdrawn state, neither its normal nor its iconic
  representation is visible.  XWithdrawWindow() returns a non-zero status
  if  the UnmapNotify event is successfully sent; otherwise, it returns a
  zero status.

  cation.

Errors
