How to open a unix socket?

Hi,

I'm working on an updated version of CLX, hosted for the moment on
sourceforge in the clocc project.

As modern X servers tend to only use unix sockets (for security) I need
to add unix socket support to CLX, but I've been unable to find out how
to open /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 with LWL.

Any pointers?

Groetjes, Peter

Re: How to open a unix socket?

Peter,

As an exercise some time ago, I implemented support for UNIX domain sockets in
LispWorks. I also ported CLX to LispWorks for Linux, using the sources at
x.org.

Take a look at http://www.bew.org.uk/Lisp/index.html
