Hallo René,

as we see this weekend on the german linuxcnc meeting, I will be pleased to give you starting help.

I agree with others, that we should begin to port to Qt. Chris has done a nice work so far on his branch:

http://git.linuxcnc.org/gitweb?p=linuxcnc.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/qt5vcp_master

May be we can go that way and all work on that branch.

The step to going to stretch can be done as soon as I fixed some stuff in gmoccapy.

Norbert

I know, and I would like to work on that.
problem is, in in wheezy or jessie shipped with a old gtk3 version, which could 
not ctreate the opengl context without hacks.
in stretch this is possible.

I did some experimental work on a gremlin substitute...it's was too much work 
for me to figure out but I could dig up the code when I'm next at home..in a 
couple weeks.
I think I got as far as displaying the origin and axis letters , pan as zoom.
I would love for someone to take this on.
I quit working on the branch because of this hurdle.
I think the first step would be to merge master into that branch, and get the 
basics working.
can you explain how I can test things?
launching the widgets, and stuff, unfortunately I dont know much about pyvcp…

I think getting rid of gtk2 dependencies is an important step to remove legacy 
deps, and move forward...
