|  | For this, we needed a wire protocol.  After surveying available options,
it was decided to implement an XDR-like protocol code generator
in portable AWK.  It now has two backends, per each of:
 - xF, the X11 frontend, is in C, and is meant to be the primary
   user interface in the future.
 - xP, the web frontend, relies on a protocol proxy written in Go,
   and is meant for use on-the-go (no pun intended).
They are very much work-in-progress proofs of concept right now,
and the relay protocol is certain to change. |
