Hello ,
You may consider taking a look at the Nano-X Window System (previously
called Microwindows).
see http://www.microwindows.org
I had tested it about 2 years ago on an embedded project (it was with
PowerPC , but this framework
is intended also for x86 and other processors). The project was shut down
quite early after it
started so I can't say much on this environment.
This system takes less resources than "X" ; it writes directly to the
display hardware (but it can also
work with framebuffer).
I do not know about language support in Nano-X Window
Regards,
Rami Rosen

Subject: Lightweight graphical environment for Linux
Date: Mon, 06 Jun 2005 09:47:22 +0300
Hi all,
I'm looking for a light weight graphical environment to write a Linux
program in. I'm currently aware of X (free, org), and that they have a
light weight version (though I don't remember what or where, links would be
welcome), and of svgalib. Is there anything besides those two?
Also, is there anything that will give me actual widgets? I don't need
anything fancy. Simple buttons and a progress bar would more than do.
I'll just define what I mean by "light". I need it to require close to zero
configuration, and to load quickly. The dotted screen X puts up when it
loads is something I would rather avoid.
The environment is a semi embedded situation. It's not embedded platform,
but I have practical reasons I would like to keep memory and space
footprints to a minimum.
Ideas welcome,
Shachar
