NAME

x10tox11 − X version 10 to version 11 protocol converter

SYNOPSIS

x10tox11 [-display host:display]

DESCRIPTION

x10tox11 masquerades as an X Window System Version 10 server.  It enables an X Version 10 client to run unchanged under X Version 11 by converting Version 10 requests into appropriate Version 11 requests, and by converting all Version 11 events received from the server into Version 10 events.  From the perspective of Version 10 clients, all Version 11 clients look like Version 10 clients; and from the perspective of Version 11 clients, all Version 10 clients just look like Version 11 clients.  Hence, a Version 11 window manager can manipulate Version 10 clients. 

This program does NOT use the X10 libnest ddX library.  It does actual protocol translation, rather than simply using X11 graphics calls to implement X10 low level operations.  As a result, it is both faster and more robust than the X10 Xnest server.

BUGS

There are limitations with respect to emulating Version 10 through a Version 11 server.  See the file README in the sources for more details.
