* xterm.c (x_make_frame_invisible): Don't forget to check the return value of XWithdrawWindow; it could indicate that the window wasn't successfully redrawn. * xterm.c (x_make_frame_invisible): Use XWithdrawWindow when available [HAVE_X11R4]; send the UnmapNotify event when appropriate [HAVE_X11]; just unmap the window if that's all that's needed [not HAVE_X11]. * xterm.c (x_set_text_property): Removed; it's only called from one place. Who wants *another* layer of indirection? * xterm.c: Use the FRAME_X_WINDOW macro, for readability. * xterm.c (x_death_handler): Renamed to x_connection_closed. (x_term_init): Use x_connection_closed as the SIGPIPE handler. * xterm.c (acceptable_x_error_p, x_handler_error_gracefully, x_error_handler): Removed; you can't catch X errors this way, since you can't perform X operations from within an X error handler, and even though we call error, we're still within an X error handler. (x_error_quitter, x_error_catcher): New functions, for panicking on and catching X protocol errors. (x_caught_error_message): Buffer for caught X errors. (x_catch_errors, x_check_errors, x_uncatch_errors): New functions for catching errors. (x_term_init): Set the error handler to x_error_quitter, rather than x_error_handler. * xterm.c (x_death_handler): Renamed to x_connection_closed.
