Hello,

I am new to Xlib, so don't know pretty much all of it. :D I would like to create a window frame across the screen, just that, just a window frame (something like the border of the marquee when you select with the mouse). I like that window frame to show up on the screen, let's say in size of 300x300. That's it. :) I've only managed to create windows, but not this.

Please, could anyone help out.
Thank you for reading!

What I have tried:

Nothing... I have never programmed in Xlib with the exception of several windows and buttons. I am more of a Python/bash, kind of a person.

So what is the problem? You need to find a good documentation and get started with it. QA is not a place for such questions; perhaps you need to search for "xlib" in the top right corner on this website, or Google.

It seems most people seek the same thing. How hard can it be to create a window frame. Anyway, I managed it in Python. :)

Here you go: The Xlib Manual[^]
