5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 23 Mar 1999
By A Customer
X is a little cyptic but very powerful.

This book does an extremely good and thorough job of documenting Xlib programming.

It is without a doubt the best technical reference I have ever read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Probably the best available..., 2 April 1998
By A Customer
FYI: you don't need volume 2... This book is cryptic and messy, but so is X. I've used it a lot whenever the man pages get too ugly.
