screen_context_t

A handle to a Screen context

Synopsis:

#include <screen/screen.h>
typedef struct _screen_context* screen_context_t;

Library:

libscreen

Description:

A context provides the setting for graphics operations within Screen. All Screen API objects, with the exception of events and buffers, are created within the scope of a context and access to these objects is always with respect to the context associated with the object. Through using a handle to a context, you can identify and gain access to the certain Screen API objects (e.g., windows, groups, displays, pixmaps) to set or change their properties.
