Xlib is very low-level, far below the concept of MDI. Anything on the UI 
is just a window with certain looks and certain event masks (e.g. a 
button is a window that listens for button events and updates it's 
canvas accordingly).

Just learning how to use Xlib is a start, but don't expect MDI-like 
functions. The closest thing to MDI I can think of right now is 
XReparentWindow(), but that's only half of what you actually need to do.
