Hi:
	I'm just starting out programming in X and would like some help
with a simple problem.  What I want to do is assign an ICON to a window
so when the window is iconified it turns into that ICON.  I have a simple
program that just prints "Hello, world" in a small window.  What is the
proper way to accomplish what I want????

	Some sample code follows:

        appWindow = XCreateWindow(RootWindow, 1, 1, 150, 50, 2,
                BlackPixmap, WhitePixmap);
        iBitmap = XStoreBitmap(icon_width, icon_height, icon_bits);
        Icon = XMakePixmap(iBitmap, BlackPixel, WhitePixel);
        iconWindow = XCreateWindow(RootWindow, 1, 1, icon_width, icon_height,
                2, BlackPixmap, WhitePixmap);
        XSetIconWindow(appWindow, iconWindow);


	This works fine but the ICONs bitmap is not displayed in its
own window, just a blank icon window appears.

Thanks in advance,
-franco
