Gtk# TV Guide

Here are the screen shots promised in the last post. These are running as .NET applications on Windows and Ubuntu Linux using the Gtk libraries for the windowing. On Linux the application is running under Mono. This is an early version, so the channel names are not showing yet.

Linux

The reason I'm so happy with this is that the rendering performance is the same on Linux as it was using Windows.Forms on Windows, and the performance of GTK on Windows is equally quick. Cairo provides some very fast painting!

Also critical is the fact that on under both environments the application looks "native" which is the result I've been looking for.
