How do you gentleuser's start your X stuff?

Hello again,

I'm managing to take a couple of steps a day.  One thing I stumbled across
the other day is the startx command.  I use this to work.  I've noticed that
my windows are not resizable and do not have scrollbars.  Is there a better
way to kickoff X?

Second question, as I'm interested in learning everything I can about X, I'm
trying to write some beginner programs.  When I compile using gcc I get a
message about unresolved calls to _XSimpleWindow and some other functions.
I've tried including -L/usr/X11R6/bin/libX11.dll but that doesn't help.  Any
suggestions?  Is there anyway I can see if the function xsimplewindow is in
the libX11.dll or what files exist in what dll's?

Thanks,
Frank
