Re: wxWidgets and C: was Re: [Qemu-devel] QEMU GUI

[Jason Gress <jasong@ccgr.org>]

I know this is a lot different than the discussion so far, but has anyone 
considered keeping SDL and using an SDL GUI similar to ZSNES?  Take a look 
(for those not familiar) at http://www.zsnes.com and grab a download.  Many 
Linux distro package managers have it also.  You don't need a SNES ROM to 
look at the GUI.  It looks like it would be hard to borrow even though it's 
GPL (parts are in ASM...) but I thought I'd bounce the idea off of the list.
