- The Python X Library is intended to be a fully functional X client
- library for Python programs. It is written entirely in Python, in
- contrast to earlier X libraries for Python which were interfaces to
- the C Xlib.
- This is possible to do since X client programs communicate with the X
- server via the X protocol. The communication takes place over TCP/IP,
- Unix sockets, DECnet or any other streaming network protocol. The C
- Xlib is merely an interface to this protocol, providing functions
- suitable for a C environment.
- Python3 is an optional dependency and python3-six is required if built
- with python3 support.
- setuptools-scm is only required as a build dependency and can be
- skipped if you would rather have it automatically grabbed from
- pypi.python.org during the build process.
