RE: RE: [Plug] Basic Linux
|
I've done some GUI development (very minor) with Gtk+ and C, and it has
been very easy. I already knew C, so I've already been over that hurdle.
Using the other bindings for Gtk+ to languages like perl or python is an
easy jump -- you can carry the GUI methodologies between the languages
very easily.
There is even a drag and drop GUI builder for Gtk+, that I know interfaces
with C, and probably interfaces with the other langs -- I think it's called
Glade, you can find it off of the gnome website:
http://www.gnome.org
As far as I know, most of the same tools/functionality exist for Qt (the
GUI toolkit that KDE uses).
