Just in case someone still thinks that an X program must handle events
to be useful, I offer the following, which I wrote because I wanted the
functionality and couldn't find an existing tool for it.

As its author, I hereby place this program into the public domain.
It's simple enough anyway that it's a little silly to try to claim
ownership of it.

I call it xwarp.

	#include <stdio.h>
	
	#include <X11/X.h>
	#include <X11/Xlib.h>
	
	char *displayname = 0;
	
	Display *disp;
	
	main(ac,av)
	int ac;
	char **av;
	{
	 char *pgm;
	
	 pgm = av[0];
	 if ((ac >= 3) && !strcmp(av[1],"-display"))
	  { displayname = av[2];
	    av += 2;
	    ac -= 2;
	  }
	 if (ac != 3)
	  { fprintf(stderr,"Usage: %s [-display <display>] <x> <y>\n",pgm);
	    exit(1);
	  }
	 disp = XOpenDisplay(displayname);
	 if (disp == 0)
	  { fprintf(stderr,"%s: can't open display %s\n",pgm,XDisplayName(displayname));
	    exit(1);
	  }
	 XWarpPointer(disp,None,XRootWindowOfScreen(XDefaultScreenOfDisplay(disp)),0,0,0,0,atoi(av[1]),atoi(av[2]));
	 XCloseDisplay(disp);
	 exit(0);
	}
