Hi everybody
MGRX is a small 2D graphics C library derived from the GRX library. GRX was
originaly written by Csaba Biegl for DJ Delorie's DOS port of the GCC compiler.
MGRX supports DOS, Win32, Linux framebuffer, Linux KMS/DRM, Linux X11 and Linux
Wayland since the previous version.
The Wayland videodriver was new in MGRX version 1.5.0 and must be considered in
beta stage. Only the i386 and x86_64 platforms are tested.
In this version I have improved the Wayland driver:
- We use the XDG_decoration protocol, if available, to ask for server side
window decoration.
it works nicely in KDE. Unfortunately Gnome doesn't support it, so we
don't have decorations there.
I know is a controversial subject here.
You can use libdecor to add client-side decorations on compositors which don't
support server
side decorations:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libdecor/libdecor
This is what SDL uses to decorate SDL windows under GNOME.
Thanks for the suggestion
I've been looking at it, it's a big dependency for a small library like
MGRX, I'll think about it, maybe look for a simpler solution, or wait
for gnome to support XDG-decoration (difficult, I know).

- We generate now autorepeat keys, because Wayland expect the client to do
it.
- The compose keys work, thanks to functions in libxkbcommon.
- The clipboard interact with the Wayland clipboard, using the core
protocols.
If someone wants to made it a try, it will be welcome.
