::I made that change. My intent for it was neutral with regard to the Tk issue, but rather to make not-incorrect those examples which use an X11 ''protocol library'' which is ''not'' Xlib. Tk is not an X11 protocol library, and it is also not Xlib, so the change is irrelevant. --[[User:Kevin Reid|Kevin Reid]] 03:47, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
::: So is the concern that over-abstraction of native Xlib types hides the internals of the protocol? --[[User:Short Circuit|Short Circuit]] 08:36, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::: '''NOT XLIB, X11!''' My view is that the distinct feature of this task as opposed to [[Creating a Window]] and all the other GUI tasks is that it is about working in the concepts defined by ''the X11 protocol''. If you're using Tk, you're using Tk's concepts rather than X11's (as far as I know). Unfortunately, as I don't ''really'' know X11 myself, I can't give good specific examples. --[[User:Kevin Reid|Kevin Reid]] 11:54, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
