GLXGETCLIENTSTRING()					    GLXGETCLIENTSTRING()

NAME
     glXGetClientString - return a string describing the client

C SPECIFICATION
     const char * glXGetClientString( Display *dpy,
				      int name )

     delim $$

PARAMETERS
     dpy   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     name  Specifies  which string is returned.  One of GLX_VENDOR, GLX_VERSION,
	   or GLX_EXTENSIONS.

DESCRIPTION
     glXGetClientString returns a string describing some aspect  of  the  client
     library.  The  possible  values  for  name are GLX_VENDOR, GLX_VERSION, and
     GLX_EXTENSIONS. If name  is  not  set  to	one  of  these	values,  glXGet-
     ClientString returns NULL.  The format and contents of the vendor string is
     implementation dependent.

     The  extensions  string  is  null-terminated and contains a space-separated
     list of  extension names. (The extension names never contain  spaces.)   If
     there are no extensions to GLX, then the empty string is returned.

     The version string is laid out as follows:

     <major_version.minor_version><space><vendor-specific info>

     Both  the	major  and minor portions of the version number are of arbitrary
     length.  The vendor-specific information is optional.  However,  if  it  is
     present, the format and contents are implementation specific.

NOTES
     glXGetClientString is available only if the GLX version is 1.1 or greater.

     If  the  GLX version is 1.1 or 1.0, the GL version must be 1.0.  If the GLX
     version is 1.2, then the GL version must be 1.1.

     glXGetClientString only returns information about GLX extensions  supported
     by  the  client.  Call glGetString to get a list of GL extensions supported
     by the server.
