- For those who are interested in using the X support provided in the
- current release, here's some information:
-
- The current release includes support for X windows and X events, but
- not for X graphics. It does provide Pixrect graphics. The ui, for
- example, draws Pixrect graphics in an X window in response to X
- events. (This isn't a great situation, but it was a relatively quick
- port.) X graphics can be had by gluing them in as primitives--see the
- manual.
-
- "window.self" contains a sample window object that creates a window
- and gets events. The other object that participates is defined in
- "eventWatcher.self" (included in the release); X calls go through
- xlib.self and xlibPrims.wrappers.self (which are also in the release).
-
- To open a window, do:
-
- window copy
-
- To see the events as they occur, first do
-
- window debug: true
-
- and then open a window.
