What specifically do you need out of libXplugin that isn't there? libXplugin is a very small shim layer to give X11 some access to some lower level APIs. Other WMs manage to resize by dragging edges, so it should be possible for quartz-wm to do the same. > > On Sun, Dec 14, 2014 at 5:59 PM, Jeremy Sequoia <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Sent from my iPhone... > > On Dec 14, 2014, at 13:54, Erik Olson <[email protected]> wrote: > >> > What API are you missing?
