Given that all my companies guis for our image processing tools, radar image prediction, and simulation are done in gtkada on both mac and linux i find that an incredible position. i don't know if key shortcuts work or not as i rarely use them even on mac native apps. even if they don't thats hardly a reason to say its unusable. i have done a number of guis on mac and our mac people have been fine with them. There are two issues i am not happy with but they are both true for both mac and linux 1. the file open box always starts at where the app was started and never remembers where it was the last time. 2. the mac has some very nice navigation extras in the file selection dialog that gtk doesnt support on either platform. when i get a bit of time i am going to write a drop in replacement for gtk standard file to solve both of these. but its not reached the top of my list yet. jim On Apr 2, 2005, at 10:16 AM, Jacob Sparre Andersen wrote: > Pascal Obry wrote: > >> I would go for GtkAda (cross platforms MacOS, Windows, >> UNIX) quite complete framework (for example GPS is done >> with it) and free (you can get commercial support from >> AdaCore). > > Even though GtkAda programs compile and run on Mac OS X > (with X installed), the usability of the programs is so > lacking [1] that I find it unreasonable to include Mac OS X > on the list of platforms supported by GtkAda. > > Greetings, > > Jacob > > [1] I never managed to get short-cut keys for buttons and > menus to work on Mac OS X (neither using the Alt, nor > the Apple/Command key) even though they work quite fine > on Linux (using the Alt key). > -- > »For there are only two reasons why war is made against a > republic: The one, to become lord over her: the other, the > fear of being occupied by her.« -- Nicolo Machiavelli >
