x window system
     
         a specification for
        device-independent windowing operations on bitmap display
        devices, developed initially by mit's project athena and
        now a de facto standard supported by the x consortium.  x
        was named after an earlier window system called "w".  it is a
        window system called "x", not a system called "x windows".
     
        x uses a client-server protocol, the x protocol.  the
        server is the computer or x terminal with the screen,
        keyboard, mouse and server program and the clients are
        application programs.  clients may run on the same computer
        as the server or on a different computer, communicating over
        ethernet via tcp/ip protocols.  this is confusing because
        x clients often run on what people usually think of as their
        server e.g. a file server but in x, it is the screen and
        keyboard etc. which is being "served out" to the applications.
     
        x is used on many unix systems.  it has also been described
        as over-sized, over-featured, over-engineered and incredibly
        over-complicated.  x11r6 version 11, release 6 was released
        in may 1994.
