-This is possible to do since X client programs communicate with the X server via the X protocol. The communication takes place over TCP/IP, Unix sockets, DECnet or any other suitable streaming network protocol. The C Xlib is merely an interface to this protocol, providing functions suited for a C environment.

+There are three advantages of choosing to implement a pure Python library:
-*Integration: The library can make use of the wonderful object system in Python, providing an easy-to-use class hierarchy.
-* Portability: The library will be usable on (almost) any computer which have Python installed. A C interface could be problematic to port to non-Unix systems, such as MS Windows or OpenVMS.
-* Maintainability: It is much easier to develop and debug native Python modules than modules written in C.
