- About XCB util
- ==============
-
- The xcb-util module provides a number of libraries which sit on top of
- libxcb, the core X protocol library, and some of the extension
- libraries. These experimental libraries provide convenience functions
- and interfaces which make the raw X protocol more usable. Some of the
- libraries also provide client-side code which is not strictly part of
- the X protocol but which have traditionally been provided by Xlib.
-
- These libraries are currently included, roughly ordered by maturity:
-
- render-util: Convenience functions for the Render extension.
- aux: Convenient access to connection setup and some core requests.
- atom: Standard core X atom constants and atom caching.
- property: Callback X property-change handling.
- icccm: Both client and window-manager helpers for ICCCM.
- keysyms: Standard X key constants and conversion to/from keycodes.
- event: Callback X event handling.
- image: Port of Xlib's XImage and XShmImage functions.
-
- If you find any of these libraries useful, please let us know what
- you're using and why you aren't in a mental hospital yet. We'd welcome
- patches/suggestions for enhancement and new libraries; Please report any
- issues you find to the freedesktop.org bug tracker, at:
-
