I developed GEM applications on DOS and on the Atari ST, didn't do anything that required as much precision as Ventura Publisher. The runtime that came with Ventura wasn't a standard GEM one.
- lproven 3y agoI know that GEM/4 and GEM/5 has additional features, such as Bézier curve support for Artline. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GEM_(desktop_environment) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GEM_(desktop_environment) These were eventually backported into FreeGEM and the current OpenGEM has them built in, I believe.
