Abstract The X Window System® has become widely accepted by many manufacturers. X provides network transparent access to display servers, allowing local and remote client programs to access a user's display. X is used on high performance workstation displays as well as terminals, and client programs run on everything from micro to super computers. This paper describes the trade‐offs and basic design decisions made during the design of X Version 11. We presume familiarity with the paper describing X Version 10.
