| | X Window System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In computing, the X Window System (commonly X11 or X) is a windowing system for bitmap displays. | | | In 1987, with the success of X11 becoming apparent, MIT wished to relinquish the stewardship of X, but at a June 1987 meeting with nine vendors, the vendors told them they believed that a neutral party was required to keep X from fragmenting in the marketplace. | | | In January 1988, the MIT X Consortium was formed as a non-profit vendor group, with Scheifler as director, to direct the future development of X in a neutral atmosphere inclusive of commercial and educational interests. |

| | X11 Tutorial |
| | Almost all workstation vendors have adopted X11 as their windowing system, though many vendors still have proprietary extensions built into the X servers shipped with their hardware. | | | Writing an non-trivial X11 based program with a graphical user interface is not easy. | | | The X Toolkit developed at MIT and distributed with X11. |

| | QA1232 - X11 FAQ |
| | Q: What is the X Window System (X11) for Mac OS X? A: X11 for Mac OS X is an implementation of the X Window System that makes it possible to run X11-based applications in Mac OS X. See www.apple.com/macosx/features/x11 for more information. | | | Q: Where is the source code to X11 for Mac OS X? A: Yes, the source code for the X11 server is available from the Darwin site. | | | A: Bug reports and feature requests related to X11 for Mac OS X can and should be filed at developer.apple.com/bugreporter. |

| | The Labs: X11 Lab |
| | Under X11 the window-management is implemented apart from the core: | | | There are several insufficiencies to be admited about X11: As per X11R6 there is still no native antialiasing font-support, neither alpha blending of windows. | | | VNC by ATT/UK has developed VNC-servers & clients for X11, in other words you can run X11 server(s) on your machine and test applications and or window-managers; X11 within X11. |

| | BetaNews Apple Bridges OS X and Linux with X11 Beta |
| | The X11 for Mac OS X public beta includes a window server, libraries and basic utilities such as xterm. | | | January 8, 2003, 7:55 PM One of the quieter announcements coming out of this week's Macworld Expo in San Francisco is the beta release of X11 for Mac OS X. Based on XFree86 4.2.1, X11 for Mac OS X provides the same windowing environment used by a myriad of Linux and UNIX applications. | | | X11 on OSX will allow Linux and Unix apps to run on OSX with minimal porting, it will (if it performs as advertised) run these apps faster then on Unix/Linux to boot. |

| | If you have already installed one of the Fink X11 packages but for one reason or another have decided you need to remove one and replace it with another, the procedure is pretty straightforward. | | | To use the Apple binaries, you need to make sure the X11 User package is installed, and you should also update Fink. | | | This frequently means that if you try to downgrade your X11 installation, you will find that binaries (executable programs, etc.) won't work anymore. |
