xosd_create - Create a new XOSD object

number_lines
              The maximum number of lines of text that the window can display. This value cannot be changed.

       The XOSD library was originally written by André Renaud, and is currenly maintained by Tim  Wright.  This
       document was written by Michael JasonSmith.

       There are no known bugs with xosd_create. Bug reports can be sent to <xosd@ignavus.net>.

xosd_init  creates  a new xosd window that can be used to display textual or numerical data on a X11 dis‐
       play in a unmanaged, shaped window that appears to be transparent. It provides a similar  effect  to  the
       on-screen display of many televisions and video recorders.

DISPLAY
              The environment variable that determines which X11 display the XOSD window appears.

       char*xosd_error
              A string to a text string describing the error.

       The  xosd_create function first appeared in version 2.0 of the XOSD library, replacing the now depricated
       xosd_init function.
