Xlib Learning Books / Resources ("Linux Petzold"?)

Question

I stubbornly decided to learn Xlib programming for Linux GUIs, just for fun and experience. I am young and have a lot of time to read useless things. No one seems to want people to find out about this, although, like everywhere else I look at, Adeks are bombarded with offers to use a toolbox instead - usually Qt or wxWidgets. Is it sad if no one recognizes Xlib who will continue to develop, for example, WxWidgets? I also recognize wxWidgets, though, when I feel comfortable with Xlib.

So - with this out of the way - my question is: is there a recommended book (or other resources) for learning Xlib programming, preferably with C ++, but C is also OK. Windows programming has its own Petzold, I was wondering if Xlib has any equivalent.

Answer 1

There used to be a whole series of books on X programming (they actually worked before Xlib!), But the one you probably want is the Xlib Programming Guide
