Beschreibung
This is the missing X Window book. While others have shown what the X Window system has available, this book shows how to convert this potential into working tools to fulfil your visualisation needs. It is of the show-me class of books.
The majority of the book covers Xlib, although a short coverage of Xcb is also given. Included are:
. The relationship between Xlib and the X Window protocol;
. All the basic Xlib topics are covered;
. Complete working programs with their results;
. Exercises to reinforce the material just covered. A 9 part partition to building a complete X program is used throughout. This partitioning fosters the inclusion of all code necessary. All programs are written in C and are one to four pages in length. Open source programs with the occasional Postscript script are shown to provide support as needed. Throughout the examples consideration is given to using colour. The examples produce simple results with the aim of providing building blocks for application oriented codes.

The book is directed at graduate students and researchers who create computer code to visualise their data.

Über den Autor
¿Ross Maloney has been around computers for over 50 years. He has worked with log tables, slide rules, hand calculators, mainframes, mini computers, micro computers, to today's workstations. He holds bachelors and master degrees in engineering and mathematics from UWA and WAIT, and a PhD in computing science from Murdoch University. For over two decades he worked in government but is now in private practice. He has tutored and lectured undergraduates in computer science over a 10 year period. His current research interests are in application of visualisation and parallel processing to text documents and applied physical science.
Zusammenfassung

The generally thought difficult programming in Xlib and Xcb is introduced in a comprehensive manner from program start to finish

This book develops guidelines using small demonstration programs which are adaptable to real-world data visualisation coding

This is one of the first books to cover Xlib for doing the whole job, as opposed to it being mentioned in passing while proceeding to perceived better solutions

The book addresses the question: Can low level X Window programming provide an alternative to tool kits in achieving visualisation goals?
