ASCII silly question, get a stupid ANSI.
X11R6 is the spec, thre protocols, the APIs.
xfree86 is an xserver project, an implementation of that standard (viva
standards!) if you have an application written for X11 (on Solaris, BSD,
Linux, AIX or even windogs) is can connect to any X11 server running on
another machine (xfree86, Excede, Starnet Xwin32, MI/X, Xinside, MetroX,
Solaris whatever).
kapish?
