Q: 

"Correct" way to playback user movement with xlib?

I'm trying to figure out a way to make demos for a program I've written with xlib, and I came across this, but, according to the author page:

This extension is not intended to support general journaling and playback of user actions.

Does anyone know of any functions in xlib that are intended to support playback of user actions? Does it even exist? Or could I just use this without any real problems?

+1  A: 

You can fake input with Xtest and record events with the record extension.
