Cocoa and GNUStep,

[Asko Kauppi]

I would say it'd be best for you to make a Cairo renderer for it.

There's tons of other ways, too, but GnuSTEP is not that ready (I  
might be wrong) and I would estimate it to perform poorly under a  
500MHz x86 anyways. Moreover, would you need the windowing, dialogs?  
If not, you can skip the window managing layer and just render your  
graphics in Cairo. OLPC has that built-in.

my 2c,  :)
