Nice work.  It will be interesting to have a Java on OS X with X11
client bindings.

How can that be motivating ? I don't really get it. You can do a lot more mac-friendliness on Cocoa-Swing or?


X11 would be cool for automated testing, à la jemmy: it's possible to start X11 with a virtual display, so that when the tests run, they don't take up space on the screen, they don't steal mouse or keyboard action, ...
That would be a huge improvement for my workflow ;-)

You can do headless testing on OSX via VNC. If you set up a test user, have that user run VNC server on login, VNC connections will go to that user even if another user is logged in.


I do this all the time to run automated java tests. _______________________________________________
