1X Server
2--------
3
4The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
5which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
6can draw into.
7
8Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
9(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
10which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
11and draggable titlebars and borders.
