 ARGUMENTS
 child_return 1i
Returns the child window that the pointer is located in, if any.
 $Header: display.a,v 1.1 88/02/26 10:26:29 mento Exp $
 display 1i
Specifies the connection to the X server.
 $Header: mask1.a,v 1.1 88/02/26 10:28:48 mento Exp $
 mask_return 1i
Returns the current state of the modifier keys and pointer buttons.
 $Header: root_gen.a,v 1.2 88/08/04 11:19:15 mento Exp $
 root_return 1i
Returns the root window \*(Ro.
 $Header: rootxy.a,v 1.2 88/08/17 09:03:18 mento Exp $
 root_x_return 1i

.ns
 root_y_return 1i
Return the pointer coordinates relative to the root window's origin.
 $Header: w.a,v 1.2 88/05/07 11:35:31 mento Exp $
 w 1i
Specifies the window.
 $Header: winxy.a,v 1.2 88/08/17 09:04:07 mento Exp $
 win_x_return 1i

.ns
 win_y_return 1i
Return the pointer coordinates relative to the specified window.
 DESCRIPTION
 $Header: XQueryPntr.d,v 1.2 88/06/11 07:52:42 mento Exp $
The
.ZN XQueryPointer
function returns the root window the pointer is logically on and the pointer
coordinates relative to the root window's origin.
If
.ZN XQueryPointer
returns 
.ZN False , 
the pointer is not on the same screen as the specified window, and
.ZN XQueryPointer
returns 
.ZN None
to child_return and zero to win_x_return and win_y_return.
If 
.ZN XQueryPointer
returns 
.ZN True , 
the pointer coordinates returned to win_x_return and win_y_return
are relative to the origin of the specified window.
In this case, 
.ZN XQueryPointer
returns the child that contains the pointer, if any,
or else
.ZN None
to child_return.

.ZN XQueryPointer
returns the current logical state of the keyboard buttons 
and the modifier keys in mask_return.
It sets mask_return to the bitwise inclusive OR of one or more
of the button or modifier key bitmasks to match 
the current state of the mouse buttons and the modifier keys.

.ZN XQueryPointer
can generate a
.ZN BadWindow 
error.
