Presuming that that means basic low-level X stuff, here's my (fairly old) X programming links. Try the last one first.
  • Programming X APIs
  • XDND - X Drag 'N Drop (proposed standard protocol)
  • John Meacham's mxt "a fast and simple X toolkit for C++" (for building into a program)
  • Eric Foster-Johnson's Programming X APIs 
  • Christopher B. Browne's X Development Tools 
  • X Windows Programming  Article at C/C++ Users Journal
    • But if you want to use a high-level GUI library, find the web sites for those which should tell you how to use them. That's a good, easy(est) way to make a (big, slow) X program. Qt, OpenMotif, etc... To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
