-
host
-
Specifies the name of the host machine on which the
server executes. A string must be acceptable as a host,
but otherwise the possible types are not constrained and will
likely be very system dependent.
-
:display
-
An integer that specifies which display device on the
host should be used for this connection. This is needed
since multiple displays can be controlled by a single X
server. The default is display 0 (zero).
-
:protocol
-
A keyword argument that specifies which network protocol
should be used for connecting to the server (for example,
:tcp, :dna, or :chaos). The set of
possible values and the default value are implementation specific.
Returns a
display
that serves as the connection to the X server and contains all
the information about that X server.
Authorization, if any, is assumed to come from the environment.
After a successful call to
open-display,
all screens on the display can be used by the client
application.
