     software in the X11R6 distribution, is explained below.

NON STANDARDS
     The X11R6 distribution contains sample implementations,  not
     reference  implementations.   Although  much  of the code is
     believed to be correct, the code should be assumed to be  in
     error wherever it conflicts with the specification.

     The only X Consortium standards are the ones  listed  above.
     No  other  documents,  include  files,  or software in X11R6
     carry special status within the X Consortium.  For  example,
     none  of the following are standards: internal interfaces of
     the sample server; the MIT-SHM extension; the Athena  Widget
     Set; the Xmu library; the Xau library; the RGB database; the
     fonts distributed with X11R6; the  applications  distributed
     with    X11R6;    the    include    files   &lt;X11/XWDFile.h&gt;
     &lt;X11/Xfuncproto.h&gt;     &lt;X11/Xfuncs.h&gt;     &lt;X11/Xosdefs.h&gt;
     &lt;X11/Xos.h&gt;  and  &lt;X11/Xthreads.h&gt;  the  bitmap  files  in
     &lt;X11/bitmaps&gt;

     The following are works in progress within the X Consortium,
     and  are  neither standards nor draft standards: Fresco; Low
     Bandwidth X; X Keyboard Extension; Record Extension.
