    .SH NAME
    DMXAddScreen \- attach a new back-end screen
    .SH SYNOPSIS
    .B #include <X11/extensions/dmxext.h>
    .sp
    .nf
    .BI "Bool DMXAddScreen(Display " *dpy ,
    .BI "                  const char " *displayName ,
    .BI "                  unsigned int " mask ,
    .BI "                  DMXScreenAttributes " *attr ,
    .BI "                  int " *screen );
    .fi
    .SH DESCRIPTION
    .B DMXAddScreen()
    attaches a back-end screen to the
    .BR Xdmx (1)
    server, in place of the previously detached back-end server specified by
    .IR screen .
    .PP
    .I displayName
    is the name of the new back-end display,
    .I mask
    specifies the field in
    .I attr
    that are active, and
    .I screen
    returns the new
    .BR Xdmx (1)
    screen number for the attached screen.
    .PP
    The information stored in
    .I mask " and " attr
    is identical to that used by the
    .BR DMXChangeScreenAttributes (__libmansuffix__)
    and
    .BR DMXGetScreenAttribues (__libmansuffix__)
    functions.
    .SH "RETURN VALUE"
    .B DMXAddScreen()
    will return
    .B True
    if the screen was successfully attached, and
    .B False
    otherwise.
    .B False
    will be returned if the
    .I \-addremovescreens
    command line option was not specified on the
    .BR Xdmx (1)
    command line, the input value of
    .I screen
    is out of range,
    .I screen
    is not currently detached,
    .I displayName
    cannot be opened, has unexpected visuals, or has characteristics that do
    not match the previously detached screen.
    .PP
    .B DMXAddScreen()
    can generate
    .BR BadLength ,
    .BR BadAlloc ,
    and
    .B BadValue
    errors.
    .SH NOTES
    Attributes that are not specified will default to 0.  This may lead to
    unintended results.
    .PP
    Unlike other functions in the
    .BR DMX (__libmansuffix__)
    API, this function uses
    .I screen
    for both input and output.
