graphical interface in the computer industry. The X Window System <br />
underlies graphical desktops on Linux and Unix systems, and supports <br />
advanced features of modern graphics cards. More people use the X Window <br />

Power Tools fills that hole with the most practical and up-to-date <br />
information available. Written in O'Reilly's popular Power Tools format, <br />
X Power Tools offers dozens of standalone articles, thoroughly <br />
cross-referenced, on useful tools and techniques for using X. This <br />

harness the power of this system effectively. This book: Offers a <br />
thorough grounding in X configuration and how the system works Provides <br />
the complete ins and outs of changing a desktop's behavior, such as <br />
fonts, keyboard settings, and remote security Includes articles on how <br />
to take advantage of X's "network transparency" -- its ability to <br />
display graphical applications on a remote machine Explores intriguing <br />
areas such as using multiple monitors, building kiosks, and <br />
accessibility Features discussions on X Window innovations and the <br />
future of the system X Power Tools covers configuration and use of X, <br />

such as Solaris and FreeBSD. Each article in the book gives you insight <br />
into X; the entire book gives you a real grasp on this system and what <br />
you can do with it. <br />
