Re: SDL and GTK?

Hi,

Can you share for what purposes? games or any 2D graphics project?
Not to help with sdl, but have you hear about clutter?
http://clutter-project.org

It has good relationship with GTK+ and also based on GObject system.
It's integrated well with GTK+ application and actively maintained.

Regards
