Linux low-level graphics in C tutorial now includes X11 (direct communication)
 

Hi everybody,

I just updated my Linux Low-Level Graphics Tutorial to include using the X11 windowing system without XCB or X11 (only sockets). Let me know what you think or if you find any mistakes.

Nice. I don't pretend to understand any of it but I've recently been awestruck by the things that the Menuet and Kolibri folks do in a windowing environment with assembly.

Thanks, I too am very impressed with the Kolibri folks. What they have accomplished is something truly inspiring.
The entire purpose of all my experiments with low-level graphics in C is just to see how much can actually be accomplished in assembly. Although I am not using assembly, I use only system calls and no external libraries, so all of the code can be converted into assembly very easily. Although, that is not what the tutorial covers.

thx

Hi.

Very nice reading, but definitely requires spellchecking (try aspell) or at least s/feild/field/g :) Thanks for sharing.

Ehh, sorry about that. I hate that word, I always get it wrong... I'll fix that soon.
