STRUCTURES
       Events:
       typedef struct {
	   int type;		   /* of event */
	   unsigned long serial;   /* #	of last	request	processed by server*/
	   Bool	send_event;	   /* true if this came	from a SendEvent request*/
	   Display *display;	   /* Display the event	was read from */
	   Drawable drawable;	   /* drawable of request */
	   int major_code;	   /* ShmReqCode */
	   int minor_code;	   /* X_ShmPutImage */
	   ShmSeg shmseg;	   /* the ShmSeg used in the request*/
	   unsigned long offset;   /* the offset into ShmSeg used in the request*/
       } XShmCompletionEvent;

       a structure of type XShmSegmentInfo :

       typedef struct {
	   ShmSeg shmseg;      /* resource id */
	   int shmid;	       /* kernel id */
	   char	*shmaddr;      /* address in client */
	   Bool	readOnly;      /* how the server should	attach it */
       } XShmSegmentInfo;

DESCRIPTION
       XShmQueryExtension  checks  to  see if the shared memory	extensions are
       available for the specified display.

       XShmQueryVersion	returns	the version numbers of the extension implemen-
       tation. Shared memory pixmaps are supported if the pixmaps argument re-
       turns true.

       XShmAttach tells	the server to attach to	your shared memory segment. If
       all goes	well, you will get a non-zero status, back and your XImage  is
       ready for use.

       XShmDetach tells	the server to detach from your shared memory segment.

       XShmPutImage  combines an image in memory with a	shape of the specified
       drawable. If XYBitmap format is used, the  depth	 must  be  one,	 or  a
       ``BadMatch''  error results. The	foreground pixel in the	GC defines the
       source for the one bits in the image, and the background	pixel  defines
       the  source for the zero	bits. For XYPixmap and ZPixmap,	the depth must
       match the depth of the drawable,	or a ``BadMatch'' error	results.

       XShmGetImage reads image	data into a shared memory XImage where display
       is the display of interest, drawable is the source drawable,  image  is
       the  destination	 XImage,  x and	y are offsets within the drawable, and
       plane_mask defines which	planes are to be read.

       XShmCreateImage allocates the memory needed for an XImage structure for
       the specified display but does not allocate space for the image itself.

       XShmPixmapFormat	gets the format	for the	server.	 If  your  application
       can  deal  with	the server pixmap data format, a shared	memory segment
       and shminfo structure are created.

       XShmCreatePixmap	points to a pixmap which you can manipulate in all  of
       the usual ways, with the	added bonus of being able to edit its contents
       directly	through	the shared memory segment.

       XShmGetEventBase	gets the completion event value.
