[MacGLQuake] very interesting developments

[Grahf]

Why does this list die every few months?  Come guys, MacQuake ain't dead yet!

What's interesting?  In short: some people are porting GTK+ to Mac OS X.

www.macgimp.com has the latest.  I don't think there's any code, or a sourceforge project, or anything, *yet.*  What people are proposing to do is to wrap the GTK code in objective-c, so it can compile under Cocoa, and do some other stuff which I don't have the technical knowledge to totally comprehend.

Regardless, considering the slightly stagnant state of level editors on the humble Mac, this could rejuvanate things in flying colors.  Specifically, I'm thinking of Quest and GTKRadiant, both of which are written in GTK.

Holy shit, I would LOVE to make Quake 3 levels on my Mac.

Keep it real.
