[Ongui-dev] platforms

[Mike D. <mi...@cs...>]

Heya,

So I started poking through the GTK-OSX project code. Do you see any future
integration between that project and OnGui?

Regarding how to accomplish our cross-platform goals, I'm thinking that a thin
"compatibility layer" might be sufficient. That is, for any necessary drawing, we
can provide "macro" drawing functions (similar to what GTK-OSX has done). So OnGui
would have separate implementations of draw_pushbutton(), draw_bevelbutton(),
draw_scrollbar(), etc. for each platform.

Is this what you had in mind? Were you more looking for getting rid of GDK
altogether? How about a high-level API that wraps around GDK on Linux and Aqua on
Mac?
