[TCLCORE] The future after X11

[Christian W. <Chr...@t-...>]

Good day my friends of Tk,

since very rough problems become aware due to the appearance of Xlibre
I would like you to point on Wayland and my little AndroWish project.

The fact, that a derivate of AndroWish runs on Wayland is based on the use of
a (ancient) version of SDL2 which provides a profound layer of pixel and
input (keybord, mice, touchery) handling facility.

The further Xlib emulation layer is based on the antialiasing magic of AGG
(whose ingenious author passed away many years ago, unfortunately).

All that engineered and fine tuned that is it working in the expected
environment but not at all designed from the ground up and possibly a
bunch of bugs or a can of worms.

So my final question should read more or less: how serious is the necessity
of Tk on POSIX? Should the future be built on a foundation which mainly
is designed for games? Or will we end as Windows/MacOS only, and some
forgotten rotten POSIX boxen including Linux.

I am no gamer, sincerly,
Christian
