This property provides a pointer to the client leader window which contains the \fBWM_CLASS\fR, \fBWM_NAME\fR, \fBWM_COMMAND\fR, and \fBWM_CLIENT_MACHINE\fR properties. .br .sp or ... .br .sp - The application maps a top level window which does not contain the \fBWM_CLIENT_LEADER\fR property. However, this top level window contains the \fBWM_CLASS\fR, \fBWM_NAME\fR, \fBWM_COMMAND\fR, and \fBWM_CLIENT_MACHINE\fR properties. .PP An application that support the \fBWM_SAVE_YOURSELF\fR protocol will receive a \fBWM_SAVE_YOURSELF\fR client message each time the session manager issues a checkpoint or shutdown. This allows the application to save state. If an application does not support the \fBWM_SAVE_YOURSELF\fR protocol, then the proxy will provide enough information to the session manager to restart the application (using \fBWM_COMMAND\fR), but no state will be restored. .SH SEE ALSO xsm(1) .SH AUTHOR Ralph Mor, X Consortium
