Comments on individual protocols ¶

applewmproto is for the Apple rootless window management extension, and generally considered to only be relevant to OSX.

windowswmproto is for win32.

xproxymanagementprotocol is now deprecated, use e.g. ssh instead

There is further information on dependencies at ​http://gentoo.linuxhowtos.org/portage/x11-proto - like any wiki it may or may not be accurate.
