  We need the X-newbies website - www.x-newbies.org ;)

   It is very important and XFree86 should publish
   a book for BASIC X window concept. It should explain
   all basic concepts of the Xwindow with example
   picture etc. Presently in Xfree86 very very less no.of
   picture are available to explain.

   Already existing books may be good. But not for
   newbies. More ( Correct ) information should
   be given to Future Xperts :)

 Bye :)

I wanna, where can I get it? Gimmi gimmi gimmi:)

Well I'd like to have such a book, also with how to programm for plain X 
without any toolkits and maybe a slight introdution into toolkits.
And of course introdution into the basic things, network support, differents 
between the different protocoll versions. An introdution into things like 
fontservers and all.

Not on programming X, but I've got a book aptly named XFree86 for Linux 
- QUE.

I didn't have to buy my radio from a specific company to listen
to FM, why doesn't that apply to the Internet (anymore...)?

1. Oreilly published 7 volumes for Xwindow. It deals
   from XProtocol to New X Tool Kits.

2. X Window System Programming By NABAJYOTI BARKAKATI ( PHI )
   It is also nice book to learn all basic concepts.

I have read it and in retrospect consider it mostly a waste of time.
The documentation from the X Consortium and from xfree86 is mostly good
and complete if it exists -- the problem lies in finding it and in knowing
what to read in what order.

(Just putting these documents in HTML versions on a web site in a flat
list would probably be an improvement from having to dig them out from
various places and file formats inside the tarball -- I had /not/ expected
such a variety of both!)
