heya again... :)
I've had a brief look at this stuff... and have decided not to pursue
it with X...
I currently have XFree running in rootless mode, btw, (under which gimp
runs) but have run into issues getting the gal and gdk-pixbuf packages
to work. (as in, they fail the ./configure phase of building, and
playing doesn't help, and I don't wanna actually alter the code, cause
the point would be to get other ppl to be able to easily do it too!)
which is pretty close, but not quite close enough... haven't tried the
LE version, but since it isn't being maintained, I can't see the point
of getting it to work... so, I guess wxWindows is an option... shall
look into that... it seems like a good option... :)
nic... :)
