XStandards(1X) XStandards(1X) NAME XStandards - X Consortium Standards SYNOPSIS The major goal of the X Consortium is to promote cooperation within the computer industry in the creation of standard software interfaces at all layers in the X Window System environment. The status of various standards, and the software in the X11R6 distribution, is explained be- low. DESCRIPTION The following documents are X Consortium standards: X Window System Protocol X Version 11, Release 6 Robert W. Scheifler Xlib - C Language X Interface X Version 11, Release 6 James Gettys, Robert W. Scheifler, Ron Newman X Toolkit Intrinsics - C Language Interface X Version 11, Release 6 Joel McCormack, Paul Asente, Ralph R. Swick, Donna Converse Bitmap Distribution Format Version 2.1 X Version 11, Release 6 Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual Version 2.0 X Version 11, Release 6 David Rosenthal, Stuart W.

Although much of the code is believed to be correct, the code should be assumed to be in error wherever it conflicts with the specification. The only X Consortium standards are the ones listed above. No other documents, include files, or software in X11R6 carry special status within the X Consortium. For example, none of the following are stan- dards: internal interfaces of the sample server; the MIT-SHM extension; the Athena Widget Set; the Xmu library; the Xau library; the RGB data- base; the fonts distributed with X11R6; the applications distributed with X11R6; the include files <X11/XWDFile.h>, <X11/Xfuncproto.h>, <X11/Xfuncs.h>, <X11/Xosdefs.h>, <X11/Xos.h>, and <X11/Xthreads.h>; the bitmap files in <X11/bitmaps>. The following are works in progress within the X Consortium, and are neither standards nor draft standards: Fresco; Low Bandwidth X; X Key- board Extension; Record Extension. XStandards(1X)
