About:
Libxmu is a client-side utility library that provides miscellaneous routines for X Window System applications. It includes functions for handling mouse cursors, resource databases, and X toolkit support. This library serves as a foundational component for GUI applications built with X11.
Key Features:

  • Resource database handling and parsing
  • X toolkit convenience functions
  • String-to-geometry conversion routines
Use Cases:
  • Developing X11 applications that need custom cursor handling
  • Parsing X resource databases for application configuration
  • Building GUI toolkits that require utility functions beyond core Xlib
Alternatives:
  • libX11 – Core X11 protocol library; Libxmu provides higher-level utilities built on top of it
