Overview ¶
Package examples contains several complete examples depicting some common use cases of xgbutil.
The examples included are designed to either demonstrate how a particular facility of xgbutil works, or how to accomplish some common goal when using X.
For example, example simple-keybinding demonstrates how to use xgbutil to respond to particular key presses while example graceful-window-close shows how to close windows without killing your connection to X.
My goal is that each example demonstrates one thing, although the nature of X typically requires some amount of boilerplate so that some examples are a bit more bloated than I would like.
If you have any suggestions for other examples to include, I'd be happy to hear them. You may post them at the main project page: https://github.com/eankeen/xgbutil.

This demonstration shows drawing entire generated images to an x window and calculating the speed of the generation and the drawing operations It should be noted that redrawing the entire image is inefficient, this demo was made to show me how fast I could draw to the windows with this method.
