     X Version 11 (1 September 1988)              XGrabServer(XS)



     NAME
          XGrabServer, XUngrabServer - grab the server


     SYNTAX
          XGrabServer(display)
                Display *display;

          XUngrabServer(display)
                Display *display;


     ARGUMENTS
          display   Specifies the connection to the X server.


     DESCRIPTION
          The XGrabServer function disables processing of requests and
          close downs on all other connections than the one this
          request arrived on.  You should not grab the X server any
          more than is absolutely necessary.

          The XUngrabServer function restarts processing of requests
          and close downs on other connections.  You should avoid
          grabbing the X server as much as possible.
