This is serious. Depending on your application it can be just very bad instead of fatal. b) There is no working windows theme. c) UTF-8 character handling on key press events does not work correctly (i't worked on 2.20) d) Speed is still a problem on Windows. Waiting for Cairo Direct2D. I only know one serious commerical GTK app for windows and that was the Python IDE Wingware. But they are using an old version. I started evaluating GTK with 2.20 and the development in the last years was more then discouraging. I decided to better spend 3 month and do a MFC port. But i'm still using GTK on windows as a development system instead of using Linux. -- Best regards, Lothar mailto:llothar@xxxxxx _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
