nanogui: Thread: Web interface

Hi,
I was wanting to ask the question: has gdk/gtk been ported to nanogui, either
through the win or X api's? I ask because the new mozilla as user interface
for a web device (eg kiosk) may be an interesting thing to try. I believe
Chris Blizzard from Red Hat also has a native X11(xlib) FE for mozilla, which
may be a good starting point too.

I couldnt find a web interface to the mailing list. If it dosent exist, I can
host one using hypermail or similar, if someone can send me all-mails-upto-now...
Thanks,
Rahul

I have looked at gtk for win32 and gtk for X11, and both could be
good starting points for getting this going.

I would recommend win32 first, since Nano-X is in the extremely
early stages still, since noone has actually built an interface that
requires that windows be moved around, and there's still alot
of bugs and work to be done.  There are also a number of
color issues with Nano-X that are still being worked out that
are finalized for win32.

Also, starting with win32 will force other issues that Microwindows
and/or Nano-X will have to take care of, like special opcode
blitting, stretchblit, and some of the more advanced functions
that may be required.

Regards,

Greg

i was looking into using macros with the nanox api and
then trying to port gdk/gtk to nanox. there are some issues in terms of
ClassHints and things that need to be reolved (ie added to
nanox) which i have also been looking into.
