Documentation is always good. Please make sure that any changes you make
compile under both C and C++, however. This is how xconq works right now,
and I would rather keep full C compatibility until we establish a separate
C++ branch. Also, please note that we have three different interfaces: mac,
tcltk and sdl. A kernel patch would need to be compatible with all three of
them.
