Hi Akhmet, Going in the opposite order: - grinit.c should have an entry for you new driver, which should reside in a subfolder, which should contain rules.mk, which should detect macOS. Once set up properly, you should have your driver compiled in. - grInitDevices() is the first call (see inside FTDemo_display_New). This does not open the window yet. This only prepares for it: RegisterClass in Windows, XOpenDisplay and get details of appropriate Visual in X11. - grNewSurface(...) actually opens the window of the requested size and the requested (or default) color depth. Or returns NULL and causes termination. The return surface object will be used for future communication with the open window. It also hosts the frame buffer that is projected in the windows - grRefreshSurface does just that: looks at the surface frame buffer and displays it - grListenSurface communicates the key presses and window resizes so that the main program modifies the frame buffer and back to grRefreshSurface, etc, etc, etc
