need info about X11 and threading

I'm developing a program which has so set up a fullscreen window, draw some polygons and use threads. Does anybody know somewhere with info about how to do this? Thanks.

I recommend that you use Gtk+ or Qt. These packages will do what you want, except perhaps the polygons depending on how elaborate the polygons are. There are books and online tutorials available for both Gtk+ and Qt. My personal preference is Gtk+.

I suppose I didn't express what I exactly was lloking for. I'd like to use exclusively XLib (the GUI is reduced to a single window which displays polygons, which doesn't seem to be very difficult to do).
