+{\it win} is a pointer to the window for which the metric is requested.
+Specifying the {\it win} parameter is encouraged, because some metrics on some ports are not supported without one,
+or they might be capable of reporting better values if given one. If a window does not make sense for a metric,
+one should still be given, as for example it might determine which displays cursor width is requested with
