.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
These bindings wrap libxcb (a C library to speak with X11, in many cases better
than Xlib in many aspects) and provide a nice object oriented interface to its
methods (using Mouse).
.PP
Please note that its aim is \fB\s-1NOT\s0\fR to provide yet another toolkit for creating
graphical applications. It is a low-level method of communicating with X11. Use
cases include testcases for all kinds of X11 applications, implementing really
simple applications which do not require an graphical toolkit (such as \s-1GTK, QT,\s0
etc.) or command-line utilities which communicate with X11.
.PP
\&\fB\s-1WARNING\s0\fR: X11::XCB is in a rather early stage and thus \s-1API\s0 breaks may happen
in future versions. It is not yet widely used.
