Hey, it would seem that I have supplied some misleading information. What I did
was to set locale and look at what got out. In fact, I have tried to reproduce
it and some new version does not escape stuff enymore (don't know why). But it
got me thinking why.
In fact, the codes are octal character codes in given encoding. The \355 is "í" in
ISO-8859-1, which fits to the LC_ALL. The \303 is not a character, I was too hasty in that and did
not notice the \255 -- it is in fact a unicode representation of the same letter "í",
which is correct since _NET_WM_NAME is in utf8.
According to this, I would guess you just need to get the correct locale set in system and call something like iconv(3) to convert it into utf8.
Unfortunately, I don't know much about X stuff, so this may not be entirely
correct (since maybe the xprop does some translation for us, I don't know).
