X server utilities

An X client is a program that interfaces with an X server (almost always via the X libraries), and thus with some input and output hardware like a graphics card, monitor, keyboard, and pointing device (such as a mouse).

This package provides a miscellaneous assortment of X Server utilities that ship with the X Window System, including: 

 - iceauth, a tool for manipulating ICE protocol authorization records;
 - rgb;
 - sessreg, a simple program for managing utmp/wtmp entries;
 - xcmsdb, a device color characteristic utility for the X Color Management
   System;
 - xgamma, a tool for querying and setting a monitor's gamma correction;
 - xhost, a very dangerous program that you should never use;
 - xmodmap, a utility for modifying keymaps and pointer button mappings in X;
 - xrandr, a command-line interface to the RandR extension;
 - xrdb, a tool to manage the X server resource database;
 - xrefresh, a tool that forces a redraw of the X screen;
 - xset, a tool for setting miscellaneous X server parameters;
 - xsetmode and xsetpointer, tools for handling X Input devices;
 - xsetroot, a tool for tailoring the appearance of the root window;
 - xstdcmap, a utility to selectively define standard colormap properties;
 - xtrapchar, xtrapin, xtrapinfo, xtrapout, xtrapproto, xtrapreset, and
   xtrapstats, a group of sample clients that use the XTrap extension;
 - xvidtune, a tool for customizing X server modelines for your monitor.
