The XView toolkit is an example of this.  You'll find the source in
contrib/toolkits/XView on the X11R4 tape.  Borrow what you like...

>2) Clients that have interfaces written using Xlib ONLY.

The olwm window manager is an Xlib client which uses a small graphics library
olgx to easily draw OpenLook objects (pieces of buttons, scrollbars, etc).
These are both on the X11R4 tape.  Take a look at contrib/windowmgrs/olwm and
contrib/lib/olgx.  olwm creates it's own menus with Xlib and olgx.
