I recently played with Bellcore window ManaGeR (MGR) - it compiles almost cleanly on -current, and to my amazement it works. For those who don't know this - it's an X-like client-server GUI. Its main advantage over XFree is that it's tiny - the server/window manager takes ca. 170kB. And some say that it's relatively easy to port clients from X to MGR... (but probably it's not so easy actually - I didn't notice any widget library in MGR distribution). Now, its libbitblit supports only 320x200x256 and 640x480x2 modes (except some other extended modes on Trident cards). I wonder what would it take to use our libvgl instead of that somewhat antiquated library. Can I use other resolutions (at least 640x480x256) with libvgl?
