This is a bare bones text-based graphics library intended for use with the penrose
window
manager library for rendering the status bar. The current state of this repo is a proof of
concept for the API before integrating with the existing penrose_ui
crate.
This crate is a thin wrapper around xlib, xft and fontconfig.
To see the crate in use you can run one of the examples provided.
- documentation
- safety comments around the use of C FFI for calling out to xlib, xft and fontconfig
This repo will not be published to crates.io as a crate. It is going to be inlined into the existing
penrose_ui
crate and is provided here as a stand alone example of a minimal graphics layer.
