# Control script grant/revoke access to X for the ATI External Events Daemon
#
# Distro maintainers may modify this reference script as necessary to conform

#
# Parameters:
#   $1 is a keyword, either "grant" or "revoke"
#   $2 is the display name
#   $3 is the X authorization file to be authorized
#
# Returns:
#   0 if authorization was successfully granted/revoked
#   nonzero on failure
#
# Note:
#   The third parameter only makes sense if xauth is being used.  If another
#   mechanism such as xhost is being used it can be ignored.  For setups that
#   do not do any form of authentication(!) this script can be trimmed down
#   to just "exit 0" and the daemon will assume that it is always authorized.
