@s@c@_ Future BIT GUI ?
This panel shows the things I am thinking to do in future revisions of bit.
I am not sure if this icon-keyed interface is any better than the old
button-keyed one. Your opinion will be appreciated. As far as
programming goes, from old GUI to this won't take more than a few
hours and code size will increase by a tiny amount BUT the memory
usage will be much higher (consider each icon needs 100*100*4 bytes)
without too much speed penalty (except first time coming up). Or
alternatively, small memory usage increase but slower response.
All icons shown here are from the old SGI NeWS icons. I am not sure
I can legitimately use these in formal releases. If you have some nifty
free icons (any standard format will do), I would like to have some.
