I need a widget development system for linux. I have looked into 4
possibilities and need a "breakthrough" in one of them:
(1) Athena widgets -- these come with linux, but as far as I can tell,
there is no canvas or drawing_area widget, so graphics isn't possible.
You don't need one; you can draw in the background of any widget. I usually
use a Form, since that lets me mix graphics and widgets. You just need to
define an event handler for Expose events. (I don't have my sample code with
me at the moment and forget exactly how it's done.)
