Hi all!

With last commit (some minutes ago) I've finally completed the _first_ attempt
of our new! shiny! fancy! import_x11 module. In the long shot, such module
should replace import_vnc for screencasts purposes; import_vnc is supposed
to fade away in a few *major* releases unless someone pops out taking care
of it (and, trust me, this module needs really MAJOR care and a BIG
rewrite/refactoring effort).

import_x11 is yet experimental. Some major annoyances:
- only 24-depth X11 server are supported (that's the next limitation that
  will go away)
- pointer isn't grabbed
- performance COULD be poor
- much more testing is needed (suggestions?)

basic user-oriented documentation is avalaible on docs/import_x11.txt.

If you want experiment this new module, just grab a fresh CVS HEAD snapshot
and have fun; you'll need of course X headers and libraries avalaible
on your box.

Don't forget to send me and/or on transcode-devel bug reports, suggestions
improvements and of course flames^W^W^W^W. :)

Best regards,
