Available W clients applications

With the latest W sources you'll get W server, library and it's documentation, several fonts and the following programs:

Available W toolkit applications

Kay Römer has programmed W toolkit (hence referred as Wt) which contains widgets with which more complex W programs can be done. W toolkit works also on top of my W2X library.

With W toolkit come the following programs done by me and Kay:


Available W toolkit widgets

A typical widget hierarchy would be something like this:


Other projects

W2X library implements W library/server functionality on top of X11 library and server. It's complete enough so that you can compile and use all the W library and toolkit programs (except wsaver and wgone for which you should use your X counterparts). It implements only monochrome W server function / functionality. You should unpack the tar-ball to W directory so that symlinks into W library sources will get right.

Mortar is a simple 2-4 player game where players shoot each other with cannons one player at the time. It has raytraced graphics and works on Linux (framebuffer, SDL, GGI), Atari (MiNT) or Amiga and DOS.

There are also diffs for some programs (Heretic, Xmountains) to get them to work with W window system.


Obsolete Notes

I have earlier made a MiNT FLI Player from x86-linux SVGAlib FLI player sources. It doesn't work on x86-linux anymore, so I suspect that I have introduced some bugs to the (v0.3 flip) code, but it seems to works well (haven't got memory protection on with MiNT...). I even added scaling to it which worked reasonably fast.

I had also implemented Basic W1R3-pl2 W Library functionality in Python. There was also Python version of my L-system parser which could output the grammar also either into W window or POV scene.

Other programs of interest with W and non-GEM MiNT usage in general were Jürgen Lock's virtual consoles and Johan Klockars' MGIF. Linux has builtin virtual consoles and for image manipulation I recommend Gimp.
