Re: porting to Wayland

[Jan Djärv]

Ok, here goes.

Image support sucks, only PNG from files.  Some redraw issues (esp. Gtk 
scrollbars) remain.
If you choose Gtk3 as toolkit, cairo is forced, otherwise give--with-cairo to 
configure.  Tool bar is blank when using native tool bar (i.e. Lucid, 
Lesstif/Motif, no toolkit) because of no xpm-support for images.

Performance is not that great, straight X is faster.

It will probably destroy your computer and burn down your house also.
