- I'm trying to remember a trick I saw I believe in an application called xwall.
- basically I have a callback wich creates a child that talks to the parent via
- a pipe. I seem to remember a way to register a file pointer with X so an event
- is generated when there is something to read on the pipe (file pointer). I
- think I need to use XSelectInput. Can anyone out ther give me some further
- direction.
-
- Also if anyone could email me xwall I would appreciate it.
-
- Thanks in advance.
