If you want to run the same application on wince, windows mobile,
and linux, you'll need to use the win32 (microwin) api, which
for the implemented subset is identical.
The nano-X API isn't better or worse, just different. It uses a
client-server implementation, which allows multiple processes to
access graphics, while the win32 is limited to a single, linked-in
application.

: I would like to code a single gui application that can run on wince,
window mobile and familiar linux (embedded linux). I know it sounds
ambitious but is it possible for nanogui to do that?
: I have been searching for months on the approach to develop such an
application but still can't arrive to any conclusion. I have tried to
develop the nano-x application but have no idea how to port to device. Do I
just copy the binaries over to the device?
: Finally, is nano-x better than microwin? Nano-X is a client-server
implementation which seems more popular than microwin. Furthermore, there is
fltk-nano-x which provides more API.
: Thank you for your advice.
