Under X10,  I used to use the DisplayType() macro determine the
device type.  This information was used to allow a user to
customize color and stipple patterns based on a particular
device.  I can't find an equivalent call or macro under X11.
The ServerVendor() macro appears to return information about
the vendor only (no information about the display the server
is driving).  Is there such a call or has this concept been
dropped?
