#2 No protocol specified

[Jeff Walter]

I noticed that on page 116 of the core-protocol.ps file
that authorization-protocol-name is unused.

It appears that xorg requires it, as when I try to run
a Simple window manager I'm writing yeilds this in
.xsession-errors:

Exception in thread "main" gnu.x11.Error: X server
connection error
protocol-major-version: 11
protocol-minor-version 0

I'm getting a similar error when just trying a simple
HelloWorld program.
I am using JDK1.5

I don't think anyone's maintaining this library anymore, yottzumm.

If you decide to take it over or fork it, let me know. I'll do the same.

Hi all!

Just to inform that Escher is actively developed again. I'll look at this issue and see if it's still valid and in this case provide a fix.

Please, look at the webpage, we have also switched to HG so the download and browse source function on SF will not work anymore.

Thanks and sorry for the years of waiting!
