XServerVendor()						       XServerVendor()

Name
  XServerVendor, ServerVendor – return the vendor of connected server.

Synopsis
  char *XServerVendor(display)
	   Display *display;

Arguments
  display   Specifies	a  connection  to  an  X  server;  returned  from
	    XOpenDisplay().

Returns
  The server vendor's string.

Description
  XServerVendor() returns a pointer to a NULL-terminated string that pro‐
  vides	 some identification of the X server implementation.  If the data
  returned by the server is in the  Latin  Portable  Character	Encoding,
  then the string is in the Host Portable Character Encoding.  Otherwise,
  the contents of the string are implementation-dependent.

  This function and XVendorRelease() make it possible to work around bugs
  in particular server implementations.

  The  C  language  macro  ServerVendor() is equivalent and slightly more
  efficient.

  Note also that in Release 5,	the  XlibSpecificationRelease  symbol  is
  defined  (with  the value 5) by Xlib.	 Before Release 5 this symbol was
  not defined.
