[comp.windows.x] ANSI C header files for X?

(Apologies if this is the wrong group).

Do header files exist complete with function prototypes for ANSI C?
If not, are they planned for a future release.

C++ is (alas) not quite enough. I cribbed the ones from InterViews, but they've too much C++
stuff, and are incomplete, I think.

I added prototypes to our copy of most of the include files - Xlib is
the difficult one.  Are the X-COnstortium aware of the
inconstistencies in naming and types in this file? All actually
harmless, I think. Also, there's too many uses before definitions for
this to be easy.

So this isn't totally scrounging ... If these files don't exist, I'm
offering to change the files to work with Ansi & non-Ansi C (and
possibly C++). I'd like to do this for the files that will be R4, but
R3 would be a step forward. Anyone at the consortuim interested? I might need an
X-purt to resolve the inconsistencies.
