<a class="ulink" href="http://libexo.os-cillation.com/" target="_top">libexo</a> is an extension
library for <a class="ulink" href="http://www.xfce.org/" target="_top">Xfce</a>,
developed by <a class="ulink" href="http://www.os-cillation.com/" target="_top">os-cillation</a>.
While Xfce comes with quite a few libraries that are targeted at desktop development,
libexo is targeted at application developement - in particular, developing applications for
the Xfce Desktop Environment.
</p>
<p>
The <span class="application">exo</span> library depends on the following libraries:
</p>
<div class="variablelist"><table border="0">
<col align="left" valign="top">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term">GLib</span></p></td>
<td><p>
A general-purpose utility library, not specific to graphical user interfaces.
GLib provides many useful data types, macros, type conversions,
string utilities, file utilities, a main loop abstraction, and so on.
</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term">Pango</span></p></td>
<td><p>
Pango is a library for internationalized text handling. It centers
around the <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/pango/pango-Layout-Objects.html#PangoLayout">PangoLayout</a> object, representing
a paragraph of text. Pango provides the engine for GtkTextView, GtkLabel,
GtkEntry, and other widgets that display text.
</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term">ATK</span></p></td>
<td><p>
ATK is the Accessibility Toolkit. It provides a set of generic
interfaces allowing accessibility technologies to interact with a
graphical user interface. For example, a screen reader uses ATK to
discover the text in an interface and read it to blind users. GTK+
widgets have built-in support for accessibility using the ATK
framework.
</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term">GdkPixbuf</span></p></td>
<td><p>
This is a small library which allows you to create <a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/gdk-pixbuf/unstable/gdk-pixbuf-The-GdkPixbuf-Structure.html#GdkPixbuf">GdkPixbuf</a>
("pixel buffer") objects from image data or image files. Use a <a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/gdk-pixbuf/unstable/gdk-pixbuf-The-GdkPixbuf-Structure.html#GdkPixbuf">GdkPixbuf</a>
in combination with GtkImage to display images.
</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term">GDK</span></p></td>
<td><p>
GDK is the abstraction layer that allows GTK+ to support multiple
windowing systems. GDK provides drawing and window system facilities
on X11, Windows, and the Linux framebuffer device.
</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term">GTK+</span></p></td>
<td><p>
The GTK+ library contains <em class="firstterm">widgets</em>, that is, GUI
components such as GtkButton or
GtkTextView.
</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term">libxfce4util</span></p></td>
<td><p>
The Xfce utility library provides various helper functions and classes for
C programmers, that aren't directly related to GUI tasks.
