CLX: Common Lisp X binding
lang/lisp/gui/clx/
CLX provides basic Common Lisp/X functionality. It is a de facto standard
low-level interface to X, providing equivalent functionality to XLib, but
in Lisp. It is also a good source for comparing the foreign function calls
in various Lisps. It does *not* depend on CLOS.
[Note: The R6 version is clearly different from the R5 version, and
it is distributed with X11R6, so we're just going to assume that it
is indeed the R6 version of CLX.]
