I need to develop a custom Xvfb server that is contained inside a standalone 
application, that can be initialized/called as needed and to capture XWD 
image convert it to some standard image like a PNG for longterm storage. 
Supplying mouse activity from inside the stand alone application. 

Looking at the code and reading the X11R6 DESIGN file it looks like Xvfb is 
called from code stored in 

xc/programs/Xserver/dix/main.c 

I had considered externally calling Xvfb and and using the utilities to 
sample and convert the XWD to a image, but I could not figure out how to 
supply mouse activity. 

So if I were to try to code my own stand alone application that can also act 
as a Xvfb server, would I then have to rename the 
xc/programs/Xserver/dix/main.c to something else, plug in my applications 
code and include and call the main() in that file?  Or is there much more to 
the X Windows compiliation of the Xservers that would prevent that? 

Any suggestions or discussion is greatly appreciated.
