MacX and X Window System for A/UX Are ICCCM Compliant (9/94)


Is the MacX v1.0 server and X Windows for A/UX ICCCM compliant?

ICCCM stands for "Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual." Yes, MacX
and X Window for A/UX are both ICCCM compliant. Most of X11R3 and later
client applications and Window Managers are designed to meet the ICCCM
conventions. The ICCCM really has nothing to do with the X server; the
convention is to make sure that all applications running X cooperate
properly with the Window Manager and share the system resources politely.

Although MacX is a server, it has a built-in Window Manager, the
functionality of which is designed to conform to the ICCCM conventions.
