GTK+ history

Hi, I'm trying to find more information about GTK+, and couldn't find it in the archived docs, specifically, I would like to know when the project was started, and what capabilities it had in the beginning. From my impression though, it was a standard like POSIX used to implement GUIs, but anyt

slow cvs?

2000-05-22 Thread Matthias Reis
Hi! I am a cvs newbie, and I wonder how slow the gnome-cvs is. My first problem is that I get no response from 'cvs login' (after 'Password:'). After that I tried to execute 'cvs -z3 checkout glib gtk+'. The program writes after 2 minutes the frist file (the ChangeLog). My ISDN connection is 0,5

moving the coordinate origin

I can't get past the first program in the Gtk+ tutorial. The machine I'm trying to use calls itself: HP-UX grace B.10.20 E 9000/809 I know it must be either that Gtk+ is not installed properly, or gmake isn't working right, or else something else is wrong. First I copied the 200x200 pixel window

I am trying to have a main window that has 4 subwindows inside of it. So far I have been unable to do this. Every attempt I've tried results in separate side by side windows, not a window and subwindow layout. Here is basically what I have tried in my last attempt. Is it possible to do this wi

Interesting idea. Gtk talks to an X server over a socket. The X server talks back, so connecting to two servers doesn't make much sense. However, you could write a simple redirecting X server which forwards traffic between an X app and your primary display and copies traffic to a secondary dis
