It features an object-oriented API and permits a certain degree of concurrency. It should enable you to implement some low-level X11 applications. How it works ------------ As is well known, X11 is a network-transparent protocol. All its message= s, including requests, replies, events, errors, etc are transported over network. Considering that Emacs is powerful enough to do network communication, it is also possible to use Emacs to send / receive those X= 11 messages. Here we fully exploit the asynchronous feature of network connections in Emacs, making XELB concurrent in a sense. ## Recent NEWS: [Not provided =F0=9F=99=81]
