+ * vroot.h -- Virtual Root Window handling header file
+ *
+ * This header file redefines the X11 macros RootWindow and DefaultRootWindow,
+ * making them look for a virtual root window as provided by certain `virtual'
+ * window managers like swm and tvtwm. If none is found, the ordinary root
+ * window is returned, thus retaining backward compatibility with standard
+ * window managers.
+ * The function implementing the virtual root lookup remembers the result of
+ * its last invocation to avoid overhead in the case of repeated calls
+ * on the same display and screen arguments. 
+ * The lookup code itself is taken from Tom LaStrange's ssetroot program.
+ *
+ * Most simple root window changing X programs can be converted to using
+ * virtual roots by just including
+ *
+ * #include <X11/vroot.h>
+ *
+ * after all the X11 header files.  It has been tested on such popular
+ * X clients as xphoon, xfroot, xloadimage, and xaqua.
+ * It also works with the core clients xprop, xwininfo, xwd, and editres
+ * (and is necessary to get those clients working under tvtwm).
+ * It does NOT work with xsetroot; get the xsetroot replacement included in
+ * the tvtwm distribution instead.
+ *
+ * Andreas Stolcke <stolcke@ICSI.Berkeley.EDU>, 9/7/90
+ * - replaced all NULL's with properly cast 0's, 5/6/91
+ * - free children list (suggested by Mark Martin <mmm@cetia.fr>), 5/16/91
+ * - include X11/Xlib.h and support RootWindowOfScreen, too 9/17/91
