## X Composite Extension
This extension causes a entire sub-tree of the window hierarchy to be rendered to an off-screen buffer. Applications can then take the contents of that buffer and do whatever they like. The off-screen buffer can be automatically merged into the parent window or merged by external programs, called compositing managers. Compositing managers enable [[lots of fun effects|http://freedesktop.org/~keithp/screenshots/]].
