/**
  The Fl_Double_Window provides a double-buffered window.
  If possible this will use the X double buffering extension (Xdbe).  If
  not, it will draw the window data into an off-screen pixmap, and then
  copy it to the on-screen window.
  <P>It is highly recommended that you put the following code before the
  first show() of <I>any</I> window in your program: </P>
  \code
  Fl::visual(FL_DOUBLE|FL_INDEX)
  \endcode
  This makes sure you can use Xdbe on servers where double buffering
  does not exist for every visual.
