The stages of me learning XCB, both in C++ and Rust. There are a couple of side lessons (CMake and vendoring) that are as aside to the whole story, but they're at least important to preserve.

Elf M. Sternberg 8a700005c3 I consider Makefiles documentation, and this will help remind me that 
I don't want to build in the root, but in a build subdirectory.  It
also provides a nice and easy `make clean` method.

README.md

WHAT:

This is an attempt to write a simple iteration of XRandR using XCB and C++.

WHY:

I'm not familiar enough with this ecosystem to be useful in it, and I need to start getting some familiarity with it before I start hacking a Rust project that needs XCB/XRandR capability.

REQURIEMENTS:

This code has been tested with gcc-7.3, and should work on any C++17-compliant compiler with the relevant standard library, and obviously X Windows.

STATUS:

In progress.

DETAILS:

BUILDING:

From the base directory of the project:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
