Rewriting for Linux?

[Mitch Bradley]

Our system is loosely based on Fedora Core 6.  The core graphics toolkit 
is called Cairo.  Information about it may be found at 
http://www.cairographics.org .  Cairo just handles the graphical 
output.  For input and windowing, we use the GTK+ toolkit, see 
http://www.gtk.org .

Happy Coding,
Mitch Bradley
