Hi, I'm an OS X user who uses X every day and wants to see further advances in the way X apps can integrate with OS X. Most of the really powerful and useful open-source apps out there are X apps, and I really want to have them running on my desktop seamlessly. Of course, the integration will always be a bit awkward because of the different widget toolkits and such, but I would at least like to have the ability to provide each X app running on my system (or at least those that have been "ported" in some way) with an icon in the dock that focuses the topmost window of the app when I click on it, for example. In order to make progress on such a goal I'm trying to understand the way X works, particularly on OS X but also in general. As part of that I want to find out where I should ask questions, and where I should look to find out where X on OS X development is heading. So I'm trying to figure out where the center of the world is as far as X on OS X is concerned. There seem to be tons of possibilities: XonX Xorg XFree86 x11-users /at/ apple xdarwin.org Can somebody advise me on where the action really is? ;^) Thanks in advance, -n8 -- >>>-- Nathaniel Gray -- Caltech Computer Science ------> >>>-- Mojave Project -- http://mojave.cs.caltech.edu --> |
