DESCRIPTION

These procedures may be used to map and unmap windows managed by Tk.
Tk_MapWindow maps the window given by tkwin, and also creates an X
window corresponding to tkwin if it does not already exist. See the
Tk_CreateWindow manual entry for information on deferred window
creation. Tk_UnmapWindow unmaps tkwin's window from the screen.

If tkwin is a child window (i.e. Tk_CreateWindow was used to create a
child window), then event handlers interested in map and unmap events
are invoked immediately. If tkwin is not an internal window, then
the event handlers will be invoked later, after X has seen the
request and returned an event for it.

These procedures should be used in place of the X procedures
XMapWindow and XUnmapWindow, since they update Tk's local data
structure for tkwin. Applications using Tk should not invoke
XMapWindow and XUnmapWindow directly.
