💜 Detailed Description 💜

API provided by libm17n-gui.so.

GUI support for a window system. 💖

This section defines the m17n GUI API concerning M-text drawing and inputting under a window system. so like — showing text, and letting people type text. the two pillars, no cap 🫶

All the definitions here are independent of window systems. ✨ But lowkey, an actual library file can depend on a specific window system. For instance, the library file m17n-X.so is an example of implementation of the m17n GUI API for the X Window System. so the API is universal, the .so file is not — iykyk 🌈

Actually the GUI API is mainly for toolkit libraries or to implement XOM, not for direct use from application programs. 🚨 bestie this is NOT your "just call it from main()" situation. it's scaffolding for the bigger girls (toolkits) and for building XOM. know your lane and respect the architecture periodt 💅
