On the contrary, using bare Xlib you would be hard pressed to write even a trivial application within a month unless you're willing to give up a lot of features which many people would take for granted (e.g. configuration, support for multiple locales, interoperability with other applications, etc). As with many things, being different is automatically a loss, so you have to do better on the other aspects just to break even. -- Glynn Clements <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
