nanogui: Thread: how to run microwin with console!

My dear Friend:
  I am working with microwindows-0.89pre7 ,I have some question with 
microwin ,Please tell me immediately or I can't continue my work.
  one question is: I am going to run microwindow on 160*160 TFT,so I will 
run microwin with console,but I don't know how to configure and make?
  the other is: I have programed a program that is to show the file 
directory and the file name but I can't to select the directory to up and 
down this directory or the file to operate with the light bar that should 
be controled with keyboard .Please tell me how to do with what function? if 
you have some demos about the file operation that we can select one file 
and can copy or delete the selected file plese send me !


     BEST REGARDS!

Normally, you do all your building on a desktop with a cross compiler.  Its 
usually not good to acutally compile the programs on the target device.

Actually I find it quite useful to do some compiles on the prototype
hardware. Granted I'm working on a set-top box so I have massive amounts of
room and power compared to a handheld device (64meg ram,intel P166,2gig hard
drive in place of the flash drive)  but I find it easier to push the limits
of the hardware's capability when I can perform a small recompile on the
target.

In a handheld, how would you even get GCC installed.

On the ipaq, lots of people have chosen to set up a NFS mount to a toolchain, 
and then do the compiling that way.  

Personally, I quickly go back and forth from editing to compiling (shotgun 
style...), so I would get very frustrated by editing on my desktop and then 
copying over to the handheld and building.  Its much easier just to switch to 
a terminal.  Cross compilers are very effective, so why not?

	[Simon Wood]  
	Are you asking how to read the keyboard (or whatever 
	buttons your device has) from the Microwindows application?

	You should be able to get keyboard events with 
		GR_EVENT_KEY_DOWN (etc).

	There are some examples of this is src/demos/nanox/nxterm.c

	You will also have to enable a keyboard driver in the config.h
	file. If you only have a few buttons (on processor PIO for 
	example) you will probably have to write your own keyboard 
	driver. see src/drivers/kdb_xxx.c

	There are a couple of toolkits that support Microwindows, I 
	think both of these have a file selection dialog.

	Search for TinyWidgets and FLTK.
