<p>What is Ecore? It is the core event abstraction layer and X abstraction
layer that makes doing selections, Xdnd, general X stuff, and event loops,

+timeouts and idle handlers fast, optimized, and convenient. It's a separate
library so anyone can make use of the work put into Ecore to make this job
easy for applications.
</p>
+<p>
+Ecore is completely modular. At it's base is the event handlers and timers, and
initialization
+and shutdown functions. The abstraction modules for Ecore include:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Ecore X
+<li>Ecore FB
+<li>Ecore EVAS
+<li>Ecore TXT
+<li>Ecore Job
+<li>Ecore IPC
+<li>Ecore Con
+<li>Ecore Config
+</ul>
+
+
+<p>
+Ecore's most popular use is to answer the plee "Just give me a damned canvas!"
+Here is an example of Ecore's EVAS module being used to simplify all
+the setup needed to create an X11 EVAS:
+</p>
+
+<div class="code">
+<pre>
+#include <Ecore_Evas.h>
+
+#define WIDTH 200
+#define HEIGHT 200
+
+ Ecore_Evas * ee;
+ Evas * evas;
+ Evas_Object * base_rect;
+
+int main(int argc, char **argv){
+
+</pre>
+<font color="red">
+<pre>
+ ecore_init();
+
+ ee = ecore_evas_software_x11_new(NULL, 0, 0, 0, WIDTH, HEIGHT);
+ ecore_evas_title_set(ee, "Ecore Template");
+ ecore_evas_borderless_set(ee, 0);
+ ecore_evas_show(ee);
+
+ evas = ecore_evas_get(ee);
+</pre>
+</font>
+<pre>
+ evas_font_path_append(evas, "data/");
+
+
+ base_rect = evas_object_rectangle_add(evas);
+ evas_object_resize(base_rect, (double)WIDTH, (double)HEIGHT);
+ evas_object_color_set(base_rect, 244, 243, 242, 255);
+ evas_object_show(base_rect);
+
+ /* More code here... */
+
+ ecore_main_loop_begin();
+
+ return 0;
+}
+</pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>
+Ecore is so modular and powerful that it can be extremely useful even in non-graphics
+programing by itself. As an example, several web servers have been written that
+were based solely on Ecore and the Ecore_Con module that abstracts socket
communication.
+For more information on Ecore and it's modules, please refer the the documentation.

+The DR17 is now in early re-write, however it is nothing more than a code
