DESCRIPTION

16       XmInternAtom  returns  an  atom  for  a  given name.  The returned atom
17       remains defined even after the client's connection closes. The returned
18       atom becomes undefined when the last connection to the X server closes.
19
20       display   Specifies the connection to the X server
21
22       name      Specifies   the  name  associated  with  the  atom  you  want
23                 returned.  The value of name is case dependent.
24
25       only_if_exists
26                 Specifies a Boolean value.  If False,  the  atom  is  created
27                 even  if  it  does  not  exist.   (If  it does not exist, the
28                 returned atom will be None.)  If True, the  atom  is  created
29                 only if it exists.
