What about SDLDotNet? It's the only C# GUI I've found that does what I want
it to do, as opposed to doing what it wants to do. The application programmer
has total control with SDL, whereas a purely event driven GUI such as Gtk#
only provides callbacks for user events--the main control loop is the GUI
event loop, not the programmer's application. (Threads? What threads? Haven't
seen them yet in Gtk#. If you know where they're hidden, please point me in
that direction.)
And Qtsharp? Forget it. Qtsharp compiles ok on my machine, but every app I
build with it crashes. If it crashes on my machine, it's likely to crash on
other people's machines, even if it doesn't on some. Not portable.
