Sorry, but maybe you should take a look at what Xlib includes: graphics,
mouse and keyboard I/O, roughly corresponding to the functionality of
graphics.library and input.library.  Intuition.library includes gadgets,
requesters and menus which are "similar" to the functionality provided by the 
X11 Intrinsics and a Toolkit like Xt.
