+.TH MiniLibX 3 "September 19, 2002"
+.SH NAME
+MiniLibX - Simple X-Window Interface Library for students
+.SH SYNOPSYS
+#include <mlx.h>
+
+.nf
+.I void *
+.fi
+.B mlx_init
+();
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+MiniLibX is an easy way to create graphical software,
+without any X-Window programming knowledge. It provides
+simple window creation, a drawing tool, image and basic events
+management.
+
+.SH X-WINDOW CONCEPT
+
+X-Window is a network-oriented graphical system for Unix.
+It is based on two main parts:
+.br
+On one side, your software wants to draw something on the screen and/or
+get keyboard & mouse entries.
+.br
+On the other side, the X-Server manages the screen, keyboard and mouse
+(It is often refered to as a "display").
+.br
+A network connection must be established between these two entities to send
+drawing orders (from the software to the X-Server), and keyboard/mouse
+events (from the X-Server to the software).
+
+.SH INCLUDE FILE
+.B mlx.h
+should be included for a correct use of the MiniLibX API.
+It only contains function prototypes, no structure is needed.
+
+.SH LIBRARY FUNCTIONS
+.P
+First of all, you need to initialize the connection
+between your software and the display.
+Once this connection is established, you'll be able to
+use other MiniLibX functions to send the X-Server messages,
+like "I want to draw a yellow pixel in this window" or "did the
+user hit a key?".
+.P
+The
+.B mlx_init
+function will create this connection. No parameters are needed, ant it will
+return a
+.I "void *"
+identifier, used for further calls to the library routines.
+.P
+All other MiniLibX functions are described in the following man pages:
+
+.TP 20
+.B mlx_new_window
+: manage windows
+.TP 20
+.B mlx_pixel_put
+: draw inside window
+.TP 20
+.B mlx_new_image
+: manipulate images
+.TP 20
+.B mlx_loop
+: handle keyboard or mouse events
+
+.SH LINKING MiniLibX
+To use MiniLibX functions, you'll need to link
+your software with several libraries, including the MiniLibX library itself.
+To do this, simply add the following arguments at linking time:
+
+.B -lmlx -lXext -lX11
+
+You may also need to specify the path to these libraries, using
+the
+.B -L
+flag.
+
+
+.SH RETURN VALUES
+If
+.B mlx_init()
+fails to set up the connection to the X server, it will return NULL, otherwise
+a non-null pointer is returned as a connection identifier.
