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: Discussion about XCB occurs on the XCB mailing list: About XCB util module ===================== XCB util module provides the following library: - aux: Convenient access to connection setup and some core requests. - atom: Standard core X atom constants and atom caching. - event: Some utilities that have little to do with events any more.
