Programming

In Unix, is there any way in which I can create a GUI like Realplayer? I mean the Windows Look & Feel.

Borded with buttons, windows, dialogs and other predefined widgets, I am wondering how to create my own buttons that come in different shapes and fashions or even draw images/control objects the way I like.

But I don't have much knowledge about how a GUI is built and displayed, can anyone give me some suggestion on what I should start with?

Thanks and Happy New Year!

You certainly can. xmms, for instance, uses a custom GUI that perfectly emulates old-style WinAMP skins, up to and including changing the window shape with clip maps. It is open source, so if you're sufficiently determined you can investigate how it does it. It'll be easier to start with SDL, it provides a programming interface with minimal brain-damage. It also has a lot of great libraries and example code for it.

dont you wanna consider using linux instead?
Linux has lots of library such as gtk and glib to have a windows like look and feel
