Re: programming X

[Havoc Pennington <rhp@zirx.pair.com>]

Assuming you have the X devel package as others have suggested, you may
also need to tell the compiler where to find the headers:
 -I/usr/X11R6/include

#include <X11/Xlib.h> should then work.

Xlib is beastly and nasty, so if you aren't very familiar with C
(especially if you're easily frsturated) it's probably a bad place to
start. Gtk would be better, or even better, simple command-line programs.
Gtk is more fun, but a small command line program is probably more
sensible. :-)

HTH,
