-- NSE x11-access v1.3

description = [[
Checks if you're allowed to connect to the X server.

If the X server is listening on TCP port 6000+n (where n is the display
number), it is possible to check if you're able to get connected to the
remote display by sending a X11 initial connection request.

In reply, the success byte (0x00 or 0x01) will determine if you are in
the <code>xhost +</code> list. In this case, script will display the message:
<code>X server access is granted</code>.
