I admit I didn't read the whole thread... I just wanted to point out the following: - XCB (http://xcb.freedesktop.org/) - aims to replace Xlib - Wayland (http://wayland.freedesktop.org/) - aims to replace the X server A quick look at the source code shows that you are targeting the X server, which might not be the best idea. Please ignore my post, if the above is well known and has already been discussed.
