Well, I started with XCB. Some might disagree, but I still have all my marbles. Not only have I started with XCB, I learned X11 with XCB. And I rode that horse all the way up to a widget toolkit based on XCB. So, I'm evidence that learning X11 with XCB is doable. _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
