(The way it was written was sort of a hack, though.) AFAIK the sole objection to using Xlib is because you can't write a GUI using it (well technically you could, but clearly using GTK or Qt is better for that task). Fabrice wants a fully integrated GUI into qemu, so he probably won't accept Xlib patches. > I'd prefer that over any conventional toolkit.

(In fact, I may take the nosdl.c and write an up2date version if I can find the time.) -- Infinite complexity begets infinite beauty. Infinite precision begets infinite perfection.
