I still have not tested on Windows; I did look up and find some documentation on how to get go and gtk installed and working together on Windows, and it basically boils down to installing the linux version of go under mingw.

Well, other update, I added preliminary gotk3 support last night. So now we have three backends, two of which are partially broken. Fun. Shiny = framebuffer, eventloop, no widgets. go-gtk = framebuffer, eventloop, widgets. gotk3 = eventloop, widgets, no framebuffer. That is too say, even though as far as I can tell the code is correctly asking a GtkImage to set its image from the pixbuf I'm passing it, I get nothing. So, hey, Joe Blue from the Shiny convo earlier, if you want to showcase examples in the various toolkits, you could contribute some more backends! :-P I tried to set it up so that gotk3 would not try to compile by default, to limit the introduction of new build headaches. To build it, add -tags gotk3 nogtk2 to the build line. If on Ubuntu 14.04 like me, or a different distro with an early gtk3, you may need to add gtk_3_10 as well. I am slowly marking the example as such in the build tags so they don't auto-build, so in the example folder use example tag to build them. go build -tags 'gtk_3_10 gotk3 nogtk2 example' lsystem example compiled with the above... 18 M go build -tags 'example' lsystem example compiled with the above (uses go-gtk)... 7M Hopefully the gotk3 rendering issue will be resolved shortly - if anyone has experience going from a golang image.Image to a rendered image on a GTK3 Cairo surface, I'll gladly listen.
