you can have a look at some of the newer interfaces for an example (like fpgui). i think if lazarus has a widgetset that targets the framebuffer it will attract a lot of embedded people, where X is sometimes too heavy (never mind gtk2). an even better idea might be to add a directfb back-end for fpgui, which is custom drawn, too. henry _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
