Yes, I know. But GUI was discussed earlier and a port of X is prefered by
most of participants. wxWindows is my dream about "Visual GCC"
library - it can play the same role as VCL in Borland products (it also
need GUI - MS Windows).
I'm mentioning wxWindows because it is free and highly portable and gcc
is one of supported compilers. IMHO, when in future will DJGPP have its
own GUI (based on anything), it should be nice to have some library
for Rapid Application Development. That's all.
