well this is a bit of a slow-ish box. it's my daily driver workstation at work. ampere emag (arm64 machine). numbers taken using strace -tt thus adding some overhead. time to launc…

right now in theory it allows different sized icons... the metadata can exist and define it.. but i have not provided a ui to change sizes... but yes... amiga-like :) there is a .e…

the cost of launching a new process with a gui is not cheap. there's a lot of setup before you even get a window up ... when that process is already there (terminal) with all of th…

there are in fact ways of drawing raw bitmap data in terminals - look up sixel for starters... but that's not what this is about. the escapes to do images and video are very simple…

when it's your window manager you are using right now... you tend to debug differently :) yes yes - xephyr and what not. i know...

well why video in a terminal? 1. it's "free" because the toolkit already offers video objects - feature is there... why not expose it. you just call 2 lines of code or so and and t…

> In lua it is customary to bring along your own main loop. > People often start with one based on select, but later move to libevent, libev, cqueues, luv (libuv), glib or others. …

well we already did the integration. it doesn't need exposing. it's meant to be handled by the bindings for that runtime environment specifically or is just always available. so it…

node.js insists on its own mainloop. python is agnostic. efl already integrates with node's libuv usage and glib mainloop. really gtk requires a glib mainloop. you make glib integr…

well it's a framework like Qt is... :) or like GTK+ and glib and then some. so if these were acceptable for bindings if they were maintained/up to date then EFL would be. But yeah …

We may have come up with an alternative for bindings - at least for EFL, where we now generate the C API from an IDL that expresses classes, inheritance, events (signals/slots), et…
