My still secret project is about the foundation for that -- a
collection of libraries which should enable writing such apps, mainly
window/event abstractions and a decent font API -- this is code which
emerged from my st code base which is subject to be published soon as
well. I was a little bit shocked, that yiyus went into a similiar
direction already ;)

But I'm in the middle of yet another move currently, so I will
postpone any announcements, otherwise I won't be able to be of any
support...

Kind regards,
