I've finally got Baby X (not the resource compiler, the Windows toolkit) to
link X11 on my Mac. And I can start work on it again. But it was far from
easyt to get it to link.

Can friendly people plesse dowload it and see if it compiles on other

Compiles and the test programs run on Ubuntu 24.04 (LTS).

Oh brilliant.

 My installation may not be typical in that I have a lot of -dev packages
installed, but it will be similar to those of others who develop software
 

I know.
Because I couldn't compile it for the Mac, and whilst I was working, somehow I just never had the intiative to do it. But now I don't have those calls on my time. And it was a complete nightmare trying to link a program with X11 on the Mac, and you need to download an app from a people caled XQuarz. And even then, I couldn't work out which path I needed to pass to the linker to link, and it only works because I use CMake's "find-package" function. And Baby X, as the name implies, is meant to keep everything simple, and I'm just not achieving that.
