NAME
       DMXAddScreen - attach a new back-end screen

SYNOPSIS
       #include <X11/extensions/dmxext.h>

       Bool DMXAddScreen(Display *dpy,
			 const char *displayName,
			 unsigned int mask,
			 DMXScreenAttributes *attr,
			 int *screen);

DESCRIPTION
       DMXAddScreen()  attaches	 a  back-end screen to the Xdmx(1) server, in
       place of the previously detached back-end server specified by  screen.

       displayName  is	the  name of the new back-end display, mask specifies
       the field in attr that are active, and screen returns the new  Xdmx(1)
       screen number for the attached screen.

       The information stored in mask  and  attr is identical to that used by
       the DMXChangeScreenAttributes(3X) and DMXGetScreenAttribues(3X)	func-
       tions.

RETURN VALUE
       DMXAddScreen()  will  return  True  if  the  screen  was	 successfully
       attached,  and  False  otherwise.   False  will	be  returned  if  the
       -addremovescreens command line option was not specified on the Xdmx(1)
       command line, the input value of screen is out of range, screen is not
       currently detached, displayName cannot be opened, has unexpected visu-
       als, or has characteristics that do not match the previously  detached
       screen.

       DMXAddScreen()  can generate BadLength, BadAlloc, and BadValue errors.

NOTES
       Attributes that are not specified will default to 0.  This may lead to
       unintended results.

       Unlike  other  functions in the DMX(3X) API, this function uses screen
       for both input and output.
