GTK and/or GTK-server on pocket PC ?

[HPW]

Question for the GTK-guys:



Is there a GTK and/or GTK-server for PPC available?

(PocketGCC is there now)



Would make sence as a GUI-toolkit for pocket-newLISP.

Hi HPW,



As far as I know, there is no port of GTK to the PPC (e.g. WinCE) yet. If there is one, it *should* be possible to compile the GTK-server with PocketGCC, since I am using MinGW myself for Win32.



There is an interesting project at http://zemljanka.sourceforge.net/cursed/">http://zemljanka.sourceforge.net/cursed/ which ports GTK to the text console. It creates an ASCII backend for GTK. But then it's still text, not graphical, but I guess it'll work with PocketConsole.



And of course it may be possible to install Linux on the PPC, and use the framebuffer backend of GTK. But I do not think this is what you want.

I just saw some proposals on the 'gtk-devel' mailinglist from july 2004 where the idea of porting GTK to WinCE was lanched. No reactions on that proposal so far.

Peter,



So wait and see. ;-)

Thanks for the info.
