Simple X11 toolkit

This toolkit is created as a way to learn X11 programming. It is completely written in C++ and has support for:

It is not complete and far from bugfree. It is public domain, you can print it out and even sell it to trolltech.com for a million dollars so they can use it in Qt ;), I don't care (although I would be interested if you actually use something from this project, mail me if you do).

Simple X11 toolkit

I learned that programming in X11 can be tedious. It provides an object oriented approach but it uses C, not C++. So you probably want to wrap things inside C++ classes to make life easier. Things get complicated since some function calls reserve memory and need to be free-ed, but this differs per function. Therefore, the use of a good memory management tool, such as Valgrind is advisable. Anyway, try it and leave it. And remember, X11 internals are like reading code from 1980. You are warned...
