Re: X-Intrinsics

[Ben Pfaff <pfaffben@pilot.msu.edu>]

   just a small question as i'm searching for the 'lowest-level' to use to
   programm under X-Win. Somebody told me that X-Intrinsics is this
   lowest-level, where other GUI's and lib's like OSF/MOTIF setup on.

   So, what's X-Intrinsics?

It's a thin object layer over Xlib written in C (not C++).

   Is it this lowest-level?

No.  Xlib is the lowest C language layer.  Below Xlib is the X
protocol.  You don't want to deal with the X protocol.

   Where are doc's for this?

The xbooks package has manuals that describe Xlib and X Intrinsics.
The xmanpages package has descriptions of Xlib and X Intrinsics
functions.
