Escher is a collection of libraries for X Window System written purely
in Java. It consists of an X11 protocol implementation (similar to
xlib for C/C++), and its extensions such as GLX, the OpenGL rendering
protocol.
Hello World
A ubiquitous "hello world" program for X written with this library
looks like this
(its screenshot
and its javadoc).
Similarly, a "hello world" program for OpenGL via GLX written with
this library looks like this (its
screenshot and its javadoc).
