The xcb-util module provides a number of libraries which sit on top of libxcb, the core X protocol library, and some of the extension libraries. These experimental libraries provide convenience functions and interfaces which make the raw X protocol more usable. Some of the libraries also provide client-side code which is not strictly part of the X protocol but which have traditionally been provided by Xlib. These libraries are currently included, roughly ordered by maturity: aux: Convenient access to connection setup and some core requests. atom: Standard core X atom constants and atom caching. property: Callback X property-change handling. event: Callback X event handling.
