: simple-drawing.c:7:22: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory

: What's the right incantation for this?

/usr/X11R6 is where X is installed, so you need -I/usr/X11R6/include
for compile and -L/usr/X11R6/lib for link (in addition to the -lX11,
et al).

In the future it will be installed in /usr/local, so then you change
the X11R6 above to local.
