I've heard of it, but never used it before. Since I wanted to write this quickly I stuck to what I knew (xlib on linux and gdi on windows). Replacing it later, if necessary, won't be hard (the target specific code is only about 300 lines, all straightforward. We were considering changing to DirectX / OpenGL a bit later anyway, so the xlib might actually be secondary in any case). But I doubt xlib is going anywhere any time soon. It's older than I am!
