Hi Scott, Welcome to this list ;) Short answer: There is no way simple way to have native widgets. Long answer: There have been some work on GTK+ bindings (in 2008 if I remember well) but I don't think it's usable. You can use Mars to build native UI for OSX. I don't know its state but your are limited to MacOS. http://smallworks.com.ar/products/mars/ There are maybe other initiatives that I'm not aware of... Cheers, Francois

Hi Guys,

I am brand new to this list and please be kind if this is a DEAD HORSE already BUT I searched the archives and could not find much.

Does Pharo have any plans for implementing native widgets? It would be a real zinger if this could be done as this sort of thing has always been a sticking point for many people (inside and out of the Smalltalk community at large).

Cheers, I love Pharo either way, Scott McLaughlin

If you're on a Mac, check out the proof of concept I hacked together using a thin MacRuby Cocoa UI on top of Pharo @ https://github.com/seandenigris/PharoMacRubyTest -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Native-widgets-tp4562133p4567938.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
