This is no longer true. The current, ongoing implementation of System.Windows.Forms is built directly on top of libgdiplus, which is our implementation of GDIPLUS.DLL using Cairo (http://www.cairographics.org). We have stopped developing the Wine-based Windows Form implementation for more than 6 months. When completed, you will be able to run WinForms app on top of an X11 server on Mac OS X. There is also ongoing work in the Cairo team to natively support the OSX Core Graphics system. When that is completed, you will be able to run WinForms apps directly on OS X without an X server. -- Duncan Mak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
