I now what's coming, this is exciting, may not be Amiga native, but it will open up a new world.
2007 the year it all begins to change.
It is native just that the programs depends on X-Windows for graphic output.
For example these programs can take advantage of the Amiga data type system or AHI.
The problem we have whit porting Linux programs to Workbench or native intuition screens is there heavy dependents on GTK / QT this GUI systems again depends on X-Windows, if we can replace GTK or QT libraries whit some kind of replacement then we can remove X-Windows, theoretically from most Linux ports.
Let?s say we just remove GTK GUI system and replace it whit Reaction, we can do that, but then it will take more time to port programs to AmigaOS4 whit little gain.
So what we need is GTK for Intuition whit no dependencies on X11, if we like avoid X-Windows.
