Well, you really do need to come up with a cross-platform graphics library.

Do we need another one? The GINO GRAPHICS library is not only cross-platform but also supports multiple compilers. Then there are open-source libraries others have mentioned. OpenGL is also cross-platform. Steve

Something included, that works on all platforms that you provide compilers for, so that the source is fully portable across those platforms, including the graphics. You shouldn't provide something like quickwin on just one platform (no I don't think quickwin is the right solution, it could be done better). I don't care which one you select necessarily, whether open source or home grown or commercial as long as it has a well designed base functionality. I want a complete, tailored development environment (ok, I want the world). > > Steve > -- Gary Scott mailto:garylscott(a)sbcglobal dot net Fortran Library: http://www.fortranlib.com Support the Original G95 Project: http://www.g95.org -OR- Support the GNU GFortran Project: http://gcc.gnu.org/fortran/index.html Why are there two?

I guess I should be more clear that I'm including GUI APIs not just "graphics primitives". > >> >> Steve >> > > -- Gary Scott mailto:garylscott(a)sbcglobal dot net Fortran Library: http://www.fortranlib.com Support the Original G95 Project: http://www.g95.org -OR- Support the GNU GFortran Project: http://gcc.gnu.org/fortran/index.html Why are there two?

So, it looks like they just need to go back to CVF, make a bunch of wrappers to OpenGL, rename their portability library to ISO_C_BINDING, and...
