Just out of curiousity, which platforms currently have builds of PHP-Gtk2? I know of: 1) MS Windows 2) Linux
What other systems do you want? I am no expert but since OSX is Linux ( or maybe BSD I am not sure) based I am pretty sure you can compile and run it there. Other than that, I am not sure what else you could as for.
You're right, OSX is FreeBSD-based. However, my understanding is that because Apple uses the Mac GUI rather than XWindows or another existing derivative, that makes it quite a different animal as far as a GUI library is concerned. FreeBSD command-line utilities _might_ work right out of the box on a Mac, but I'm guessing any windowed applications would need to be rewritten. So, I'm also guessing PHP-Gtk2 would have to be, at the very least, configured and compiled especially for OSX. If anyone knows different, please jump in. Also, I'm curious about platforms such as: - OpenBSD - NetBSD - Solaris - BeOS Each of which would need, if nothing else, a recompile for PHP-Gtk2 to work. -Ron T.
