I would like to learn how to create a C graphical application without using some toolkit for hobby. I know that there are two main libraries: Xlib and xcb. The first is old but has a lot of documentation, the second is newer but less documented than the first. So I was thinking to learn Xlib and then xcb. I found this book about Xlib: "XLIB Programming Manual" of Adrian Nye published on 1994. I do not found any other recent book. Is it good to start with Xlib even is it old? -- Emanuele Petriglia (ema-pe)<hr> xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg">http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg</a> Info: <a href="https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg">https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg</a> Your subscription address: %(user_address)s </blockquote> [1] is a guide that should be fairly valid on xlib. From there you can afterwards embed xlib-xcb.h, gradually migrate from xlib to xcb reading the docs, read the guide from iotek for fonts in xcb without xft [2] or embed pango in your application.
