The system manages windows that represent a space for different applications. Each application can be written using it's own GUI framework: GTKmm, Qt, Tkinter, and so on. Thus maybe your question should be addressed to a "guy" that is responsible for sending a sort of "REDRAW_WINDOW" signal whenever it is needed and a part of window becomes visible. I guess that should be some kind of System GUI Manager that is definitely different in Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, etc. Therefor the "guy" you are looking is System. -- Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/ _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
