And where is a screenshot?

Not very exciting :)
After preventing termination on key-press..

Hmm ..so this is X11 window without GTK if i understand this ::)
-
IUP supports the Motif driver. Personally I think X11 GUI is ugly and reminds me of the early days of Unix GUI.
-
X11 is the foundation system, with all the other layers built on top. Perhaps the early GUI developers were deficient in the right-hemisphere :)

I guess it's a matter of when you jump on board.
My goal with SB and IUP is a cross platform easy to use solution. (KIS)

This is my line of pursuit: using openGl directly with X11

In that context it makes sense.

High speed pursuits must be a joy to watch. ;D

Well this brings new light to X11 server and maybe is ugly but it looks that is simple to use
it reminds me on win api( the structure of event).
