 XGetInputFocus is returning the WindowID of the topmost window with an a
appended to it ie if window id is 0x1000e the it prints 0x1000ea when we do
the printf of the id that we get from the XGetInputFocus function . Is there
any mistake at my part or something else has to be done.

Code is as follows.

{
Window focusWin = 0;
int reverToReturn = 0;
Display *disp  =  XOpenDisplay(NULL);
assert(disp);
XGetInputFocus(disp, &focusWin, &reverToReturn);
printf("Win is %x\n",focusWin);

}
