+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.ZN XCreateWindow
+function creates an unmapped subwindow for a specified parent window,
+returns the window ID of the created window,
+and causes the X server to generate a
+.ZN CreateNotify
+event.
+The created window is placed on top in the stacking order
+with respect to siblings.
+.LP
+The coordinate system has the X axis horizontal and the Y axis vertical
+with the origin [0, 0] at the upper-left corner.
+Coordinates are integral,
+in terms of pixels,
+and coincide with pixel centers.
+Each window and pixmap has its own coordinate system.
+For a window,
+the origin is inside the border at the inside, upper-left corner.
+.LP
+The border_width for an
+.ZN InputOnly
+window must be zero, or a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results.
+For class
+.ZN InputOutput ,
+the visual type and depth must be a combination supported for the screen,
+or a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results.
+The depth need not be the same as the parent,
+but the parent must not be a window of class
+.ZN InputOnly ,
+or a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results.
+For an
+.ZN InputOnly
+window,
+the depth must be zero, and the visual must be one supported by the screen.
+If either condition is not met,
+a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results.
+The parent window, however, may have any depth and class.
+If you specify any invalid window attribute for a window, a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results.
+.LP
+The created window is not yet displayed (mapped) on the user's display.
+To display the window, call
+.ZN XMapWindow .
+The new window initially uses the same cursor as
+its parent.
+A new cursor can be defined for the new window by calling
+.ZN XDefineCursor .
+.IN "Cursor" "Initial State"
+.IN "XDefineCursor"
+The window will not be visible on the screen unless it and all of its
+ancestors are mapped and it is not obscured by any of its ancestors.
+.LP
+.ZN XCreateWindow
+can generate
+.ZN BadAlloc
+.ZN BadColor ,
+.ZN BadCursor ,
+.ZN BadMatch ,
+.ZN BadPixmap ,
+.ZN BadValue ,
+and
+.ZN BadWindow
+errors.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XCreateSimpleWindow
+function creates an unmapped
+.ZN InputOutput
+subwindow for a specified parent window, returns the
+window ID of the created window, and causes the X server to generate a
+.ZN CreateNotify
+event.
+The created window is placed on top in the stacking order with respect to
+siblings.
+Any part of the window that extends outside its parent window is clipped.
+The border_width for an
+.ZN InputOnly
+window must be zero, or a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results.
+.ZN XCreateSimpleWindow
+inherits its depth, class, and visual from its parent.
+All other window attributes, except background and border,
+have their default values.
+.LP
+.ZN XCreateSimpleWindow
+can generate
+.ZN BadAlloc ,
+.ZN BadMatch ,
+.ZN BadValue ,
+and
+.ZN BadWindow
+errors.

+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadAlloc
+The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.
+.TP 1i

+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadMatch
+The values do not exist for an
