- context
- Specifies the context type to which the data belongs.  
- data
- Specifies
the data to be associated with the window and type. 
- data_return
- Returns the
data. 
- display
- Specifies the connection to the X server. 
- rid
- Specifies the resource
ID with which the data is associated. 
If an entry with the specified
resource ID and type already exists, XSaveContext   overrides it with the
specified context. The XSaveContext   function returns a nonzero error code
if an error has occurred and zero otherwise. Possible errors are XCNOMEM
  (out of memory).
Because it is a return value, the data is a pointer. The
XFindContext   function returns a nonzero error code if an error has occurred
and zero otherwise. Possible errors are XCNOENT   (context-not-found). 
The
XDeleteContext   function deletes the entry for the given resource ID 
and type from the data structure. This function returns the same error codes
that XFindContext   returns if called with the same arguments. XDeleteContext
  does not free the data whose address was saved. 
The XUniqueContext   function
creates a unique context type that may be used in subsequent calls to XSaveContext.
