There's a figure on page 16 of Adrian Nye's ``Xlib Programming Manual'' which
looks like this:
---+ Network
| | | Events In +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
v | | +--------->| | | | | | | | | Client 1 Queue
+---+ | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Server Queue | | | | |
+---+ | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| | | | |--------->| | | | | | | | | Client 2 Queue
+---+ | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| | | |
+--->| |--->|
| |
I'd to know if the events really are being read off of the network at a
single point and redistributed to the clients. I haven't found any evidence
of this in the Xlib source, but I still wonder what was meant by this figure.
For background, let me state that I'm interested in building a multi-level
secure X window system, and I *don't* want to have to trust the Xlib (client
-side) of things.
