	X Window System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This may have an interface akin to that of Microsoft Windows or of the Macintosh (examples include Kwin in KDE or Metacity in GNOME) or have radically different controls (for example: twm, the basic window manager supplied with X).
		W Window System ran under the V operating system.
		The term "X Windows" (in the manner of "Microsoft Windows") is officially deprecated and generally considered incorrect, though it has been in common use since early in the history of X and has been used deliberately for literary effect, for example in the UNIX-HATERS Handbook.

	Y Window System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Y Window System (Also known as Y-Windows) is a windowing system, consisting of a window server and a client library for writing applications.
		It is intended to be a successor to the X Window System, hence the name.
		It differs from the X Window System in having an integrated widget set and ground-up support for things like an alpha channel, which allows transparent or translucent windows.

	The Y-Windows Project
		The Y project team are pleased to announce the availability of the beta test version of the Y window system.
		Y is the result of international collaboration between leading computer scientists, psychologists, linguists and ergonomists, and sets out to redress many of the problems reported by users of the X window system, and in particular the related problems of screen clutter and icon underload.
		The fundamental problem with all previous window/icon/menu systems is the necessity to present the user with an every-increasing number of icons, as the complexity and range of tasks which the workstation is configured to support increases.

	Kenton Lee: X Window System Technical Glossary
		The colormap associated with a window is used to display the contents of the window; each pixel value indexes the colormap to produce an RGB value that drives the guns of a monitor.
		Window A occludes window B if both are mapped, if A is higher in the global stacking order, and if the rectangle defined by the outside edges of A intersects the rectangle defined by the outside edges of B. Note the distinction between occludes and obscures.
		A pixel is an N-bit value, where N is the number of bit planes used in a particular window or pixmap (that is, is the depth of the window or pixmap).

	Windowing system definition by The Linux Information Project (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		A windowing system, also referred to as a window system, is a collection of software that creates the basic GUI (graphical user interface) on computer display screens, including the drawing of windows and other graphics primitives (i.e., basic shapes) for application programs.
		A window is a (usually) rectangular portion of the display on a computer monitor that presents its contents (e.g., the contents of a directory, a text file or an image) seemingly independently of the rest of the display screen, including other windows on the screen.
		The X Window System, often referred to merely as X, is a complete, cross-platform and free windowing system for managing GUIs on single computers and on networks of computers.

	Y design document
		Y is an attempt to solve this, by making a low-level library that is easy to program and powerful enough that Qt can become a true portable toolkit, rather than a huge programming system.
		Y will provide an interface to efficiently callback functions when file descriptors become ready or when the user does things to any graphics device that they have a graphics context to.
		Y may support complex character composing services, each keystroke will be reported as a set of bytes to delete and replace so that preview of partially-composed letters is trivial for the application.

	X(7) manual page
		The X Window System is a network transparent window system which runs on a wide range of computing and graphics machines.
		One of the advantages of using window systems instead of hardwired terminals is that applications don't have to be restricted to a particular size or location on the screen.
		The X Window System standard was originally developed at the Laboratory for Computer Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and all rights thereto were assigned to the X Consortium on January 1, 1994.

	The Y Window System
		The Y Window System is intended to be a successor to, naturally enough, the X Window System.
		The naming is consistent with past events: X was successor in name and concept to the W Window System.

	Definition of X Window System
		In computing, the X Window System (commonly X11 or X) is a windowing system for bitmap displays.
		The server may be an application displaying to a window of another display system, it may be a system program controlling the video output of a PC or it may be a dedicated piece of hardware.
		A window manager is used to control the placement and appearance of application windows.

	Y Window System : A Quick Look From 10,000 Feet
		Every Y display, regardless of color resolution, is available to the developer as 32 bit RGBA color.
		The client asks the Micro Server for some information on startup (what devices it is using, what the ID of the root window is, etc.) and the Micro Server sends events from keyboard(s) and mouse(mice) back to the clients.
		In the event of an operation that results in a window heirarchy change, the client causing the change notifies all the clients that have expressed interest in the changed windows.

		Das X Window System (auch: X Version 11, X11, X, aber nicht X-Windows) ist eine Sammlung von Protokollen, Computerprogrammen und Standards zur Ansteuerung grafischer Bildschirme im allgemeinen und zur Anzeige einer grafischen Benutzungsoberfläche, vor allem unter Unix-Systemen.
		Die strikte Trennung des X Window Systems vom Betriebssystem und von der Benutzeroberfläche führt zu einem vergleichsweise flexiblen System, das aber auch sehr uneinheitlich erscheinen kann.

		An operating system consists of various fundamental programs which are needed by your computer so that it can communicate and receive instructions from users; read and write data to hard disks, tapes, and printers; control the use of memory; and run other software.
		The second reason is that when devices like these have had their embedded processors removed, the operating system must perform the work of the embedded processors, often at real-time priority, and thus the CPU is not available to run your programs while it is driving these devices.
		Note If you are installing the system via a remote management device that provides a text interface to the VGA console, you may not be able to see the initial graphical splash screen upon booting the installer; you may even not see the boot prompt.

	X Window System - LQWiki
		The X Window System (X or X11 for version 11, for short) is a platform independent method of providing graphics capabilities to an operating system, while also being network transparent.
		While other systems for providing graphics capabilities are possible, the standard graphical interface system on Linux is the X Window System.
		One client is special, and is the window manager - X on its own does not manage drawing the window widgets (title bar and borders) and minimizing, maximizing, raising, and other specifics - this is delegated to the window manager.

		I found the Y Window System very interesting, because I saw very fast the common problems with the good old X systems on Linux after starting with it.
		Thousands of window managers, GUI frameworks and dependencies is quite confusing for a Linux newbe, well surely even for the white rabbits of you too...
