Does anyone know if there is a Gambit interface to Xlib (or maybe XCB) out there? I'm just as happy not to have to reimplement anything I don't have to.

Alternately, how about a client implementation of the X11 protocol in Scheme? Not sure but that might make more sense.

Thanks, -Dave

Yes there is... it is one of the examples in the Gambit distribution! Check out examples/Xlib-simple . You can do:

cd examples/Xlib-simple make examples

I have more complete version of xlib bindings. It can be obtained by git:

git clone http://iris-comp.ru/public/git/gravicappa-wm.git

Building:

cd xlib make
