+.SH ARGUMENTS
+.IP \fIdisplay\fP 1i
+Specifies the connection to the X server.
+.IP \fIname\fP 1i
+Specifies the extension name.
+.IP \fImajor_opcode_return\fP 1i
+Returns the major opcode.
+.IP \fIfirst_event_return\fP 1i
+Returns the first event code, if any.
+.IP \fIfirst_error_return\fP 1i
+Returns the first error code, if any.
+.IP \fInextensions_return\fP 1i
+Returns the number of extensions listed.
+.IP \fIlist\fP 1i
+Specifies the list of extension names.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIXQueryExtension\fP function determines if the named extension is
+present. If the extension is not present, \fIXQueryExtension\fP returns
+\fIFalse\fP; otherwise, it returns \fITrue\fP. If the extension is present,
+\fIXQueryExtension\fP returns the major opcode for the extension to
+major_opcode_return; otherwise, it returns zero. Any minor opcode and the
+request formats are specific to the extension. If the extension involves
+additional event types, \fIXQueryExtension\fP returns the base event type code
+to first_event_return; otherwise, it returns zero. The format of the events is
+specific to the extension. If the extension involves additional error codes,
+\fIXQueryExtension\fP returns the base error code to first_error_return;
+otherwise, it returns zero. The format of additional data in the errors is
+specific to the extension. If the extension name is not in the Host Portable
+Character Encoding the result is implementation-dependent. Uppercase and
+lowercase matter; the strings ``thing'', ``Thing'', and ``thinG'' are all
+considered different names.
+.LP
+The \fIXListExtensions\fP function returns a list of all extensions supported
+by the server. If the data returned by the server is in the Latin Portable
+Character Encoding, then the returned strings are in the Host Portable
+Character Encoding. Otherwise, the result is implementation-dependent.
+.LP
+The \fIXFreeExtensionList\fP function frees the memory allocated by
+\fIXListExtensions\fP.
