XStandards(1X) XStandards(1X)NAMEXStandards - X Consortium StandardsSYNOPSISThe major goal of the X Consortium is to promote cooperation within the computer industry in the creation of standard software interfaces at all layers in the X Window System environment. The status of various standards, and the software in the X11R6 distribution, is explained below.DESCRIPTIONThe following documents are X Consortium standards: X Window System Protocol X Version 11, Release 6 Robert W. Scheifler Xlib - C Language X Interface X Version 11, Release 6 James Gettys, Robert W. Scheifler, Ron Newman X Toolkit Intrinsics - C Language Interface X Version 11, Release 6 Joel McCormack, Paul Asente, Ralph R. Swick, Donna Converse Bitmap Distribution Format Version 2.1 X Version 11, Release 6 Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual Version 2.0 X Version 11, Release 6 David Rosenthal, Stuart W. Marks Compound Text Encoding Version 1.1 X Version 11, Release 6 Robert W. Scheifler X Logical Font Description Conventions Version 1.5 X Version 11, Release 6 Jim Flowers, Stephen Gildea X Display Manager Control Protocol Version 1.0 X Version 11, Release 6 Keith Packard X11 Nonrectangular Window Shape Extension Version 1.0 X Version 11, Release 6 Keith Packard X11 Input Extension Protocol Specification Version 1.0 X Version 11, Release 6 George Sachs, Mark Patrick X11 Input Extension Library Specification X Version 11, Release 6 Mark Patrick, George Sachs The X Font Service Protocol Version 2.0 X Version 11, Release 6 Jim Fulton PEX Protocol Specification Version 5.1 Cheryl Huntington (architect), Paula Womack (editor) PEXlib Specification and C Language Binding Version 5.1 Jeff Stevenson Inter-Client Exchange (ICE) Protocol Version 1.0 X Version 11, Release 6 Robert Scheifler, Jordan Brown Inter-Client Exchange (ICE) Library Version 1.0 X Version 11, Release 6 Ralph Mor X Session Management Protocol Version 1.0 X Version 11, Release 6 Mike Wexler X Session Management Library Version 1.0 X Version 11, Release 6 Ralph Mor The Input Method Protocol Version 1.0 X Version 11, Release 6 Masahiko Narita, Hideki Hiura X Synchronization Extension Version 3.0 X Version 11, Release 6 Tim Glauert, Dave Carver, Jim Gettys, David P.

Although much of the code is believed to be cor- rect, the code should be assumed to be in error wherever it conflicts with the specification. The only X Consortium standards are the ones listed above. No other documents, include files, or software in X11R6 carry special status within the X Consortium. For example, none of the following are standards: internal interfaces of the sample server; the MIT-SHM exten- sion; the Athena Widget Set; the Xmu library; the Xau library; the RGB database; the fonts distributed with X11R6; the applications dis- tributed with X11R6; the include files <X11/XWDFile.h>, <X11/Xfuncproto.h>, <X11/Xfuncs.h>, <X11/Xosdefs.h>, <X11/Xos.h>, and <X11/Xthreads.h>; the bitmap files in <X11/bitmaps>. The following are works in progress within the X Consortium, and are neither standards nor draft standards: Fresco; Low Bandwidth X; X Key- board Extension; Record Extension. XStandards(1X)
