By +adjusting the host and/or display number that a X11 client attaches +to, the client is attached to xscope instead of X11. xscope attaches +to X11 as if it were the client. All bytes from the client are sent +to xscope which passes them on to X11; all bytes from X11 are sent to +xscope which sends them on to the client. xscope is transparent to +the client and X11. + +In addition to passing characters back and forth, xscope will print +information about this traffic on stdout, giving performance and +debugging information for an X11 client and server. |
