The XlibRGB set of functions is a port of the GdkRGB library to use plain Xlib and X drawables. You can use these functions to render RGB buffers into drawables very quickly with high-quality dithering.

  unsigned int colors[256];
  unsigned char lut[256]; /* for 8-bit modes */

typedef enum
{
  XLIB_RGB_DITHER_NONE,
  XLIB_RGB_DITHER_NORMAL,
  XLIB_RGB_DITHER_MAX
} XlibRgbDither;
These values are used to specify which dithering method should be used. XLIB_RGB_DITHER_NONE will use no dithering and simply map the colors in an RGB buffer to the closest colors that the display can provide. XLIB_RGB_DITHER_NORMAL will provide dithering only on pseudocolor displays. XLIB_RGB_DITHER_MAX will provide dithering on pseudocolor and 16-bit truecolor or “high color” displays.
| XLIB_RGB_DITHER_NONE | Specifies no dithering. | 
| XLIB_RGB_DITHER_NORMAL | Specifies dithering only on pseudocolor displays. | 
| XLIB_RGB_DITHER_MAX | Specifies dithering on high color displays. |

An image will thus look like an RGBRGBRGBRGB sequence of 8-bit values. This function does not let you specify dither offsets; applications that need to render partial regions of a buffer to build the final image should use xlib_draw_rgb_image_dithalign() instead.

An image will thus look like an RGBRGBRGBRGB sequence of 8-bit values. This function lets you specify a pair of dither offsets. It should be used when you need to render regions of an RGB buffer separately to form the final image; the dither offsets let you align the dither mask appropriately.

                                             int rowstride);This function is analogous to xlib_draw_rgb_image(), but it lets you use 32-bit RGB buffers with pixels specified as 0xRRGGBB00. The least-significant 8 bits are actually discarded. This function can lead to faster results than xlib_draw_rgb_image() since the pixels are aligned on 32-bit boundaries.
