It is a set of two libraries, one being libIV and the other Unidraw.
Both offer a quite highlevel and (most important) c++ interface to
X. Also included (and the reason why I tried to port :-) are some
sample applications, namely doc (a wysiwyg TeX editor, which seems
to produce postscript output also without using dvips), idraw (another
object oriented drawing package, quite impressive), ibuild (an interface
builder which let's you create user interfaces for your applications
quite easy) and iclass (a class browser, I didn't test it yet).
