PicoGUI wasn't as portable as it should have been, but it really wasn't tied to Linux at all. Its networking code used BSD sockets, and I think there were a few POSIXisms elsewhere, but most of the OS-specific code was in video and input drivers that you wouldn't be using anyway. I think the biggest problem was just motivation in general. It's hard to get excited about a GUI that doesn't already do everything you want it to... especially when it has no applications :) --Micah -- Only you can prevent creeping featurism! ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: InterSystems CACHE FREE OODBMS DOWNLOAD - A multidimensional database that combines robust object and relational technologies, making it a perfect match for Java, C++,COM, XML, ODBC and JDBC. www.intersystems.com/match8 _______________________________________________ Pgui-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pgui-devel
