Oh, you're writing a program for x directly? interesting. I did a very little bit with that a few years back...

yeah i started learning xlib off and on about a year ago and its really not that tough, just takes alot of code to do something that would take say one or two lines in gtk or qt.

this place (http://capderec.udg.es:81/ebt-bin/nph-dweb/dynaweb/SGI_Developer/XLib_PG/) has the entire xlib programming manual online(as well as a bunch of other books), i started using this when i first started but decided to just get the books myself from oreilly and got the xlib reference manual too(both are totally excellent)
