About XCB util modules
|
||
|
======================
|
||
|
|
||
|
The XCB util modules 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.
|
||
|
|
||
|
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:
