AXE is a C++ class library intended to make programming with
Xlib a lot easier.
Resources in X like windows, colors or graphics contexts are represented by
objects in C++ with member functions to provide the operations on those resources.
The AXE library provides a main() function with the event
loop.
All you need to do is create your own objects with classes that are derived
from the classes in AXE and override the event handling methods to
handle the events you select.
There is also a set of classes for user interface objects, such as menus and buttons. A few utility classes handle strings, times and dates.
You can download the AXE tarball which contains the source and the (slghtly outdated) documentation. To get you started, read the tutorial.
