libW11 is a hack that has *just enough* functionality to support rxvt. If you stray outside this functionality by calling any random graphics call, you will either get a crash, graphics not drawn at all, or graphics drawn incorrectly. libW11 is not a API, contrary to what the maintainer of it wishes it to be. libW11 is just a seperate packaging of the hacks that allow rxvt to run without modification of the graphics drawing routines under Windows. No beef. Harold
