X protocol Emacs Lisp Binding

X protocol Emacs Lisp Binding

XELB (X protocol Emacs Lisp Binding) is a pure Elisp implementation of X11 protocol based on the XML description files from XCB project. It features an object-oriented API and permits a certain degree of concurrency. It should enable you to implement some low-level X11 applications. Please refer to xelb.el for more details.

Regenerating XCB Bindings

Most (although not all) bindings in this library are auto-generated from xcb-proto. To regenerate them:

1. Install your distro's xcb-proto package (apt install xcb-proto, pacman -S xcb-proto, etc.).
2. Run make.

Alternatively:

1. Download the latest xcb-proto release.
2. Extract it.
3. Run make PROTO_PATH=/path/to/xcb-proto/src
