4*4882a593SmuzhiyunThe X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
5*4882a593Smuzhiyunwhich are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
6*4882a593Smuzhiyuncan draw into.

8*4882a593SmuzhiyunWindows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
9*4882a593Smuzhiyun(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
10*4882a593Smuzhiyunwhich usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
