Rust-XCB is a set of bindings and wrappers for XCB. It uses the XML protocol descriptions from XCB to generate the bindings and the wrappers.
Rust-XCB is only intended as an interface to XCB, so provides nothing above and beyond that.

The bindings are generated from the rs_client.py script with help from the xcbgen library (also
from XCB). The bindings are inside the ffi module, which also contains the hand-written bindings
to the core library.
Bindings reflect the C API almost one for one.
The wrappers are generated from the same files, and provide a safe and more convenient wrapper over the low-level bindings by having automatic destructors for returned data, trait implementations for object "types" and other safe helpers.
