Hello there,
I would like to know what toolkit/widget-set to use for the implementation
of a graphical interactive query tool for examining a database containing
model data.
At the moment a student here is working on the specifications for such a tool.
A first implementation will have to be made based on the X window system.
Some of the user interface functionalities required are :
- the usage of menus
- the usage of graphical input functionalities (select, dig, etc...)
- the usage of graphical output primitives (points, lines, arcs, etc...)
- the usage of an alpha-numeric IO-window.
We would like to know what toolkit/widget-set to use; There are so many.
We know about the existence of xgks and other gks implementations under X
but we would like to know about aother possibilities.
Our preferences goes to a toolkit/widget-set that at least offers the
functionalities given above and that is officially supported.
(We are using X version 11 Release 4)
Thank you,
Marcel Boender

I also would like to know which toolkit or widget set to use. Which ones look like they are going to have some longevity? Is there an accepted standard? -Mike
