OK, but still Xorg is a cross-platform solution, it works in Windows, ReactOS, OS2 and hopefully sometime in Haiku-OS and others. There is OpenMotif and Tk.

- bitwize 2y agoYes, but Mr. Anderson, what good is a cross-platform window system, if no one wants to develop for or support it? Enjoy your old and busted toolkits for your old and busted window system. The Linux ecosystem has chosen Wayland. The removal of X code paths from relevant toolkits has begun; I'm sure Qt will follow suit soon enough.
