xinerama

Description

Grab-bag of utilities for use with the xlib egg. This includes a set of procedures for working with X properties, events, and EWMH desktops, as well as a datatype called xcontext, which is a way to package up a display, a screen, a xinerama-screen, and a window into a single convenient record.

For bug reports, feature requests, and development versions, visit the bitbucket project page.
