        !             9:      Xnest - Recursive X window system implementation
        !            10: 
        !            11: DESCRIPTION
        !            12:      This implementation allows you to run an X server in a win-
        !            13:      dow of another X server.  Full functionality is supported.
        !            14:      The number of planes provided by this pseudo-device is the
        !            15:      same as the underlying device.  The cursor sizes, tile
        !            16:      sizes, and brush sizes supported are also the same.  The
        !            17:      number of color cells provided is specified with a ._X_d_e_-
        !            18:      _f_a_u_l_t_s option.
        !            19: 
        !            20:      Aside from being a good hack, this implementation exists
        !            21:      primarily to aid system developers when debugging the
        !            22:      device-independent portion of the server. The debugging can
        !            23:      be accomplished without requiring a second physical display.
        !            24: 
        !            25:      Exposures on (and resizings of) the window are ignored, and
        !            26:      so corrupt the "screen".
        !            27: 
        !            28: X DEFAULTS
        !            29:      Accepts the following defaults (for the program "X", not
        !            30:      "Xnest"):

        !            32:      BorderWidth
        !            33:             Set the border width of the window.
        !            34: 
        !            35:      Border  Set the border color.

        !            37:      CellExponent
        !            38:             If not set or set to zero, a monochrome psuedo-
        !            39:             display is created.  Otherwise, if a value of N is
        !            40:             provided, specifies the maximum number color cells
        !            41:             to be 2^N.  The number actually provided will be a
        !            42:             power of two, but may be less than 2^N if allocation
        !            43:             fails.
        !            44: 
        !            45: ENVIRONMENT
        !            46:      Uses the environment variable ``DISPLAY'' to specify which
        !            47:      display to use.
