- Anon to Protect the Guilty (2/4) Jun 02 2004 Yes, I can, and so can you.
what's the best GUI for windows at the moment? (unDig, DFC, DUI)... Can you compare them, and tell me the differences between them.

Meanwhile, you could always take a look at them and see what you think. Hopefully the downloads include non-trivial example code, but I haven't checked.

Thanks! I've dowload unDig... and I find it cool. I run the examples and played a little... but I could not understand why a dos mode window is popped up during the initialization. Isn't it supposed to appear only one window (the program one)?

The problem with some GUI toolkits is that they are not portable. It would be very nice if all developers had portability in mind. Cheers, Bruno. Miguel Ferreira Simões wrote:Thanks!

For example, it limits how close you can stay to the API for simplicity, efficiency or other reasons. Hence whether you'll want to port your program or not is a contributing factor to the decision of which library to use.
