@chapter Package Layout
The Python X Library is distributed as a Python package, named
@code{Xlib}. It contains a number of modules providing the main
library interface:
@table @code
@item display
Contains the @code{Display} class, providing the X connection and access
to all other X objects and operations.
@item error
Contains all @code{Xlib} exception classes.
@item threaded
Imported to set up the library to be thread-safe.
@item rdb
Contains @code{ResourceDB}, an X resource database class, and related
code.
@item X
Contains symbolic names for all basic X protocol constants.
@item Xutil
Contains additional constants for mainly the ICCCM standard.
@item XK
Contains symbolic names for all X keysyms.
@item Xatom
Contains symbolic names for all standard X atoms.
@item Xcursorfont
Contains symbolic names for all standard X fonts.
@end table
There is also a number of subpackages, but they will mainly be of
interest to developers of the Xlib itself:
@table @code
@item protocol
The low-level protocol implementation. Contains definitions of all X
request, responses, events and errors, in addition to the core network
code. The high-level object oriented interface provided by
@code{Xlib.display} is merely a wrapper around this package.
@item support
Miscellaneous supporting code for handling threads and operating
system-specific features.
@item xobject
Contains classes for all X objects, which are returned by various
display operations.
@item ext
Contains various X protocol extensions. Extensions supported by the
server are loaded automatically at the display connection.
