-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Xlib generally calls the program's
-supplied error handler whenever an error is received.
-It is not called on
-.ZN BadName
-errors from
-.ZN OpenFont ,
-.ZN LookupColor ,
-or
-.ZN AllocNamedColor
-protocol requests or on
-.ZN BadFont
-errors from a
-.ZN QueryFont
-protocol request.
-These errors generally are reflected back to the program through the
-procedural interface.
-Because this condition is not assumed to be fatal,
-it is acceptable for your error handler to return;
-the returned value is ignored.
-However, the error handler should not
-call any functions (directly or indirectly) on the display
-that will generate protocol requests or that will look for input events.
-The previous error handler is returned.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XGetErrorText
-function copies a null-terminated string describing the specified error code
-into the specified buffer.
-The returned text is in the encoding of the current locale.
-It is recommended that you use this function to obtain an error description
-because extensions to Xlib may define their own error codes
-and error strings.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XDisplayName
-function returns the name of the display that
-.ZN XOpenDisplay
-would attempt to use.
-If a NULL string is specified,
-.ZN XDisplayName
-looks in the environment for the display and returns the display name that
-.ZN XOpenDisplay
-would attempt to use.
-This makes it easier to report to the user precisely which display the
-program attempted to open when the initial connection attempt failed.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XSetIOErrorHandler
-sets the fatal I/O error handler.
-Xlib calls the program's supplied error handler if any sort of system call
-error occurs (for example, the connection to the server was lost).
-This is assumed to be a fatal condition,
-and the called routine should not return.
-If the I/O error handler does return,
-the client process exits.
-.LP
-Note that the previous error handler is returned.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XGetErrorDatabaseText
-function returns a null-terminated message
-(or the default message) from the error message
-database.
-Xlib uses this function internally to look up its error messages.
-The text in the default_string argument is assumed
-to be in the encoding of the current locale,
-and the text stored in the buffer_return argument
-is in the encoding of the current locale.
-.LP
-The name argument should generally be the name of your application.
-The message argument should indicate which type of error message you want.
-If the name and message are not in the Host Portable Character Encoding,
-the result is implementation-dependent.
-Xlib uses three predefined ``application names'' to report errors.
-In these names,
-uppercase and lowercase matter.
-.IP XProtoError 1i
-The protocol error number is used as a string for the message argument.
-.IP XlibMessage 1i
-These are the message strings that are used internally by the library.
-.IP XRequest 1i
-For a core protocol request,
-the major request protocol number is used for the message argument.
-For an extension request,
-the extension name (as given by
-.ZN InitExtension )
-followed by a period (\.) and the minor request protocol number
-is used for the message argument.
-If no string is found in the error database,
-the default_string is returned to the buffer argument.
