Hello,
I am a beginning LISP programmer using clisp on a Linux PC. I am
trying to use X for displaying some (very simple) graphics and
animations.
I have clx for clisp and can get the demos working. But I somehow
can't get my own programms work. Besides I really hate XLib and
don't care anything about graphic-contexts, drawables and functions
with 120 parameters.
I tried to compile ExpressWindows and CLUE on clisp, but it
didn't compile with my clisp/clx. I also tried ExpressWindows
with PCL/CLX, didn't work.
Is it possible to get these things working? Are they easy to
use? What are the alternatives? I know about garnet and gina,
with only 8MB they are far too big for me.
Isn't there an easy to use library using clx functions to
open a window and draw some lines, circles, etc? Like back
in those Basic or Logo days. And perhaps double-buffering for
animations?
If someone could give me some assistance I would try to
write it myself, but right now I am really frustrated with
programming at XLib Level.
Bye,
Norbert
