X isn't a GUI, it's a network-enabled window management system. And you probably don't grasp its strengths. If you mean "does anyone know of a GUI development toolkit that's not specific to X", the answer becomes: Tcl/Tk and Qt. I suspect, however, that the question has some degree of confusion over its own identity and direction. Cheers. -- Karsten M.
