Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult 47fa09f728 kdrive: drop #define of Status to int
The status return values always have been int (directly corresponding
to X11 protocol reply status values, as defined in X.h).

Seems that back about 2 decades ago, somebody started converting them
to their own type, unfortunately just very inconsequently in a few places,
which isn't very helpful. It would have been different if done everywhere
in the whole Xserver, but doing so would be a bigger task.

Therefore, for consistency, just dropping this here and just use 'int',
what all the rest of the Xserver code, as well as X11 protocol headers
and Xlib are doing.

X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the following article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server

All questions regarding this software should be directed at the Xorg mailing list:
