For xlib, I learnt everything from
http://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib-tutorial/
and then the xlib documentation that comes with my distribution on my
system /usr/share/doc/xorg-docs-1.4-r1/hardcopy/X11/xlib.PS.bz2.
Most extensions have their own documentation. The header files also
helped me a lot. And most standard C library functions have their own
man page. But that only helps if you already know the function name. For
a comprehensive reference, try "info libc".
Gtk, Qt etc. all have pretty good(!) documentation installed on my
system by default.
Now if this "inspires" you to join mrxvt, we need your help!!
