Also note that if you are using Xt, your shell is probably a subclass
of WMShell so you would be better off using the XtNtitle resource
instead of calling XStoreName().  XtSetValues() incurs more client CPU
overhead but keeps the shell up to date locally.  WMShell provides many
of the window manager goodies like XtN(min|max)(Width|Height),
XtN(width|height)Inc, XtNbase(Width|Height), etc....
