They are all similar in features. In this talk Daniel Jitnah will briefly talk about how GUI applications work, and what are the toolkits available: GTK, QT and Tk as examples. He will also demonstrate how a very simple GUI application can be built. The IDEs used will be QTDesigner, Lazarus, Anjuta+Glade and Netbeans. Daniel Jitnah is currently vice-president of LUV. He has a particular interest in free software in education, and has been using Linux for over 15 years as his main operating system. He claims to have never used a Microsoft OS on any of his machines as main OS. There will also be the usual casual hands-on workshop, Linux installation, configuration and assistance and advice. Bring your laptop if you need help with a particular issue. LUV would like to acknowledge Red Hat for their help in obtaining the Buzzard Lecture Theatre venue and VPAC for hosting.
