Re: [Texmacs-dev] Windows Progress

[Dan Martens]

Hi David,

We are using Visual Studio 6.0 for this implementation.  

As an update, things are now progressing extremely fast as I have written most 
of the basic X code.  I am focusing now mostly on tweaks and little bugs here 
and there.  You can now type in the editor, click on menus and other basic 
functionality. 
We are getting very close to a beta stage.

After this is complete, I ultimately would like to see a full windows version 
of texmacs without the native widgets.  This would not only give it the windows 
look and feel, but would also give much faster drawing and response time to GUI 
events.

Right now, it looks exactly as it does in Linux, only with a windows frame. 
Very unique.

Dan
