Hello, i am a beginner in X-Windows, i have a question: in the function XOpenDisplay(display_name), where
display_name=hostname:displaynumber.screennumber, 1) does "hostname" mean a name of a computer, physically existing, where it would be necessary to open a graphical applications (that is a computer-client), or is it a computer-server ? 2) what is "displaynumber" and "screennumber" in terms of physically existing displays-screens and computer-client(s) and computer-server ? 3) what is the difference between the terms "display" and "screen" ? 4) if display_name=NULL, then display is opened in the local computer - this is implicit designation of the local computer, How to provide display_name explicitly ? that is would it work for example: local:0.0 ? 3) is it possible to provide "hostname"=1.2.3.4. (which is an IP-address), instead of the name of the computer ? would appreciate your answers to the e-mail: [email protected] thank you.
