is there a equivalent Library call to xwininfo -name firefox
The process ID assocated with a window is not something an X11 server (and
therefore xwininfo) is aware of, in part because the client that created
the window is not necessarily running on the same system as the X11
server. Indeed, process IDs are an OS corcern, not an X11 one.
You might be able to find suggestions towards what you are looking for
through a Google (or Yahoo, etc.) search.
