+EVI (Extended Visual Information extension) allows a client to determine

+<para>
+As the X Window System has evolved, it has become clear that the information
+returned by the core X protocol regarding Visuals is often insufficient for a
+client to determine which is the most appropriate visual for its needs. This
+extension allows clients to query the X server for additional visual
+information, specifically as regards colormaps and framebuffer levels.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+This extension is meant to address the needs of pure X clients only. It is
+specifically and purposefully not designed to address the needs of X
+extensions. Extensions that have an impact on visual information should provide
+their own mechanisms for delivering that information. For example, the Double
+Buffering Extension (DBE) provides its own mechanism for determining which
+visuals support double-buffering.

+If supplied, the client_major_version and client_minor_version indicate
+what version of the protocol the client wants the server to implement.
+The server version numbers returned indicate the protocol this extension
+actually supports. This might not equal the version sent by the client.
+An implementation can (but need not) support more than one version
+simultaneously. The server_major_version and the server_minor_version
+are a mechanism to support future revisions of the EVI protocol that
+may be necessary. In general, the major version would increment for
+incompatible changes, and the minor version would increment for small
+upward-compatible changes. Servers that support the protocol defined in
+this document will return a server_major_version of one (1), and a
+server_minor_version of zero (0).

+XeviQueryVersion sets major_version_return and minor_version_return to
+the major and minor EVI protocol version supported by the server.  If
+the EVI library is compatible with the version returned by the server,
+it returns nonzero.  If dpy does not support the EVI extension, or if
+there was an error during communication with the server, or if the server
+and library protocol versions are incompatible, it returns zero.  No other
