I have been going over my GLX initialization code and noticed that pfInitGLXGfx
has a mysterious parameter 'mode'. There is no mention of it anyplace I can
find - except in the man-page prototype and in the example program complex-glx.
A perusal of pf.h shows a define for PFGLX_AUTO_RESIZE which is used in
complex-glx but no mention of what it is for or why I might need it.

Question is - what is it? And, while I'm on the subject of GLX windows I
would like to clear up for myself once and for all what the 'approved' way of
setting up a GLX *widget* is. I have been creating the GLX widget in my APP
and calling GLXunlink right before I pfInitPipe. Once in pfInitPipe I GLXlink
and go about my business ... e.g. pfInitGLXGfx etc.

Is there a better/another way to do this? I kind of like the approach I've
been using because it's fairly straightforward and doesn't complicate anything
else - like X-input processing.

Cheers,
Scott
