I'm looking for time to do it. I wanted to do it because I want to implement gdk backend for gnustep. But now I'm thinking if it make more sense to have gdk with glib runloop in a seperated thread and communicate between thread with dbus. A display server implementation in seperated thread should allow self-decorated window to be movable in case that the app part is frozen. And gdk would make life easier on window hinting and the whole system may be more portable to non-X platforms. _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
