At this time, I don't really know. Basically : - GTK is widely deployed and easy to install (at least that was true with GTK 1.2, that's _less_ true with GTK 2.x), but the GTK guys constantly break their own API, which makes it very hard for me to maintain a 1.x AND 2.x compatible program which keeping useable source code - Qt is a much nicer toolkit but it requires C++ and is far less popular than GTK (especially on non-Linux systems which don't expect to replace Windows on the desktop anytime). - I don't want the Nessus client to be web based (such solutions already exist anyway). So I guess I'll probably stick to GTK, but I hate that. I also hate to spend too much time on the GUI. > My biggest issue is the lack of scroll bars on some of the configuration > screens. Are you using GTK2 ? GTK2 broke the scroll bars. I don't know how to restore them. > I have an old laptop that I use as a portable vulnerability > scanner, and I cannot run the native client because the screen only goes > to 800x600. Press "alt" and click in the middle of the window to move it around. _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
