-Display *XOpenDisplay\^(\^char *\fIdisplay_name\fP\^);
-.HP
-int XCloseDisplay\^(Display *\fIdisplay\fP\^);
-.SH ARGUMENTS
-.IP \fIdisplay\fP 1i
-Specifies the connection to the X server.
-.IP \fIdisplay_name\fP 1i
-Specifies the hardware display name, which determines the display
-and communications domain to be used.
-On a POSIX-conformant system, if the display_name is NULL,
-it defaults to the value of the DISPLAY environment variable.
-.IN "Environment" "DISPLAY"
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.ZN XOpenDisplay
-function returns a
-.ZN Display
-structure that serves as the
-connection to the X server and that contains all the information
-about that X server.
-.ZN XOpenDisplay
-connects your application to the X server through TCP
-or DECnet communications protocols,
-or through some local inter-process communication protocol.
-.IN "Protocol" "TCP"
-.IN "Protocol" "DECnet"
-If the hostname is a host machine name and a single colon (:)
-separates the hostname and display number,
-.ZN XOpenDisplay
-connects using TCP streams.
-If the hostname is not specified,
-Xlib uses whatever it believes is the fastest transport.
-If the hostname is a host machine name and a double colon (::)
-separates the hostname and display number,
-.ZN XOpenDisplay
-connects using DECnet.
-A single X server can support any or all of these transport mechanisms
-simultaneously.
-A particular Xlib implementation can support many more of these transport
-mechanisms.
-.LP
-.IN "Display"
-If successful,
-.ZN XOpenDisplay
-returns a pointer to a
-.ZN Display
-structure,
-which is defined in
-.hN X11/Xlib.h .
-If
-.ZN XOpenDisplay
-does not succeed, it returns NULL.
-After a successful call to
-.ZN XOpenDisplay ,
-all of the screens in the display can be used by the client.
-The screen number specified in the display_name argument is returned
-by the
-.ZN DefaultScreen
-macro (or the
-.ZN XDefaultScreen
-function).
-You can access elements of the
-.ZN Display
-and
-.ZN Screen
-structures only by using the information macros or functions.
-For information about using macros and functions to obtain information from
-the
-.ZN Display
-structure,
-see section 2.2.1.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XCloseDisplay
-function closes the connection to the X server for the display specified in the
-.ZN Display
-structure and destroys all windows, resource IDs
-.Pn ( Window ,
-.ZN Font ,
-.ZN Pixmap ,
-.ZN Colormap ,
-.ZN Cursor ,
-and
-.ZN GContext ),
-or other resources that the client has created
-on this display, unless the close-down mode of the resource has been changed
-(see
-.ZN XSetCloseDownMode ).
-Therefore, these windows, resource IDs, and other resources should never be
-referenced again or an error will be generated.
-Before exiting, you should call
-.ZN XCloseDisplay
-explicitly so that any pending errors are reported as
-.ZN XCloseDisplay
-performs a final
-.ZN XSync
-operation.
