nanogui: Thread: Nano Gui and XWindows

Hi All

I wonder that
NanoGui is based on Xwindows or not?
And can we run NanoGui without supporting of Xwindows

 Best Regard

Hi,

Please refer to the faq on the microwindows site for your first
question.

In your second question, I believe you are referring to nano-X, and
whether it requires X windows to operate (Please correct me if I'm
wrong). I think the answer is, it depends. 

Typically, nano-X is run on top of the linux framebuffer, as a
small-footprint replacement for X Windows. Also, (although I haven't
tried this), nano-X can be run directly on hardware.

There is also the facility of running nano-X on top of X windows.
Although this seems to defeat the purpose of using nano-X in the first
place, it is useful for testing on a development host in an X Windows
environment.

Hope this helps,
George Goh
