gpm: High Level Lib

 
 4.3 High Level Library
 ======================
 
 The high level library is part of the main 'libgpm.a', but it acts at a
 different level of abstraction.  The high level library depends in the
 low-level one, so if you link your application with any object of the
 high-level library, you're forced to link in the low-level one too.
 
    If your application _only_ runs under xterm, please see 'gpm-xterm'
 in the 'sample' subdirectory of the distribution, which offers all the
 needed functionality.
 
    The main role of the high-level library is to define a way to manage
 windows (or "Regions of Interest" on your text screen).  The regions are
 arranged in a stack, and event are delivered to the different windows
 according to their position both on the stack and on the screen.  See
 hltest.
