Hi Paul, Thanks for the clarification. Your point about using the native Quartz windowing system is well taken and may be implemented in the future but right now thats a bit of a distraction for me. The code I want to compile is actually sitting in the source that jhbuild pulls down, namely ~/gtk/source/gtk+-2.24.31/gdk/x11 and I have XQuartz installed on my machine so I have the necessary X11 dependencies but I’m not fluent enough in the gtk dependency scheme to understand how modify the makefiles to build gtk against x11 on a mac.
