/* Since xpenguins version 2.1, the ToonGetRootWindow() function
 * attempts to find the window IDs of
 *
 * 1) The background window that is behind the toplevel client
 *    windows; this is the window that we draw the toons on.
 *
 * 2) The parent window of the toplevel client windows; this is used
 *    by ToonLocateWindows() to build up a map of the space that the
 *    toons can occupy.
 *
 * In simple (sensible?) window managers (e.g. blackbox, sawfish, fvwm
 * and countless others), both of these are the root window. The other
 * more complex scenarios that ToonGetRootWindow() attempts to cope
 * with are:
 *
 * Some `virtual' window managers (e.g. amiwm, swm and tvtwm) that
 * reparent all client windows to a desktop window that sits on top of
 * the root window. This desktop window is easy to find - we just look
 * for a property __SWM_VROOT in the immediate children of the root
 * window that contains the window ID of this desktop window. The
 * desktop plays both roles (1 and 2 above). This functionality was
 * detected in xpenguins 1.x with the vroot.h header file.
 *
 * Enlightenment (0.16) can have a number of desktops with different
 * backgrounds; client windows on these are reparented, except for
 * Desktop 0 which is the root window. Therefore versions less than
 * 2.1 of xpenguins worked on Desktop 0 but not on any others. To fix
 * this we look for a root-window property _WIN_WORKSPACE which
 * contains the numerical index of the currently active desktop. The
 * active desktop is then simply the immediate child of the root
 * window that has a property ENLIGHTENMENT_DESKTOP set to this value.
 *
 * KDE 2.0: Oh dear. The kdesktop is a program separate from the
 * window manager that launches a window which sits behind all the
 * other client windows and has all the icons on it. Thus the other
 * client windows are still children of the root window, but we want
 * to draw to the uppermost window of the kdesktop. This is difficult
 * to find - it is the great-great-grandchild of the root window and
 * in KDE 2.0 has nothing to identify it from its siblings other than
 * its size. KDE 2.1+ usefully implements the __SWM_VROOT property in
 * a child of the root window, but the client windows are still
 * children of the root window. A problem is that the penguins erase
 * the desktop icons when they walk which is a bit messy. The icons
 * are not lost - they reappear when the desktop window gets an expose
 * event (i.e. move some windows over where they were and back again).
 *
 * Nautilus (GNOME 1.4+): Creates a background window to draw icons
 * on, but does not reparent the client windows. The toplevel window
 * of the desktop is indicated by the root window property
 * NAUTILUS_DESKTOP_WINDOW_ID, but then we must descend down the tree
 * from this toplevel window looking for subwindows that are the same
 * size as the screen. The bottom one is the one to draw to. Hopefully
 * one day Nautilus will implement __SWM_VROOT in exactly the same way
 * as KDE 2.1+.
 *
 * Other cases: CDE, the common desktop environment. This is a
 * commercial product that has been packaged with Sun (and other)
 * workstations. It typically implements four virtual desktops but
 * provides NO properties at all for apps such as xpenguins to use to
 * work out where to draw to. Seeing as Sun are moving over to GNOME,
 * CDE use is on the decline so I don't have any current plans to try
 * and get xpenguins to work with it.
 *
 * As a note to developers of window managers and big screen hoggers
 * like kdesktop, please visit www.freedesktop.org and implement their
 * Extended Window Manager Hints spec that help pagers and apps like
 * xpenguins and xearth to find their way around. In particular,
 * please use the _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP and _NET_VIRTUAL_ROOTS
 * properties if you reparent any windows (e.g. Enlightenment). Since
 * no window managers that I know yet use these particular hints, I
 * haven't yet added any code to parse them.  */

/* Time to throw up. Here is a kludgey function that recursively calls
 * itself (up to a limit) to find the window ID of the KDE desktop to
 * draw on. It works with KDE 2.0, but since KDE 2.0 is less stable
 * than Windows 95, I don't expect many people to remain using it now
 * that 2.1 is available, which implements __SWM_VROOT and makes this
 * function redundant. This is the hierarchy we're trying to traverse:
 *
 * -> The root window
 * 0 -> window with name="KDE Desktop"
 * 1   -> window with no name
 * 2     -> window with name="KDE Desktop" & _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DESKTOP
 * 3       -> window with no name and width >= width of screen
 *
 * The last window in the hierarchy is the one to draw to.  The
 * numbers show the value of the `depth' argument.  */
