Hello, Thanks for answering, I think now I am trying to do something different to genearte my own application window...
what I am trying to do is to get button's text of existing application such as xclock, gedit... which can be built using different toolkits. So does it still work ?
Thanks

Any program using any toolkit - GTK, Motif, Xaw, Qt, whatever - should be able
to run in any desktop (CDE, GNOME, KDE, Afterstep, etc.) or under any window manager.
Pick whichever toolkit you want for your application - it may look out of place
in a desktop mostly using other toolkits, but it should still work.
