Re: Call for help: GTK+ for OS X

Yeah, count me in. My question. I'm assuming that GTK+ uses a pixel based drawing system. Quartz uses a vector based system. This could get hairy.

My advice would be to wrap the GTK+ environment to the Cocoa one. That way, creating a GTK+ button would create an NSButton, etc.

Are you talking about creating a window by window system, or a complete user environment. IE: When I create a GTK+ window, will I be creating an NSWindow, or will I be creating another type of window in a different environment. A better way of saying this is: When I launch cocoa Gimp, will I be able to see it's windows and Mail's? Or will I have to click on the gimp dock icon to hide everything, then go to a new enviroment?

I'm assuming the latter.

Hey there,

I was wondering if anybody would be interested in helping with a port of GTK+ to OS X (Quartz, not XF86) using Cocoa. I think this would be an interesting project :-)

Anybody interested?
