11:34 AM vmt: rue_mohr: motif is not used to the extent nowadays that you could say with absolute certainty it's "stable!"
11:35 AM vmt: also, a simple widget library (that 1980s look you're going after) will not be very complicated to write
11:36 AM vmt: at most you're going to go with labels, buttons, text input, sliders, checkboxes/radio and probably images of sorts
11:39 AM vmt: you'll abstract the widgeting thing to its own system, and the rendering backend can be whatever. for something efficient, i think it's a safe bet the hardware you'll run this on will support opengl up to at least 3.0
11:42 AM vmt: or, for max 1980s just write a software blitter
07:01 PM rue_mohr: well
07:02 PM rue_mohr: the authors of motif did not understand the concept of objects
