Er..., let's back up a bit: what's the point of this thread? What do
you want, a single cross-platform codebase?
We're talking about minimising download-hassle for the users?
Why don't you just put everything needed into native executables?
There are plenty of cross-platform graphics- and networking-toolkits
and languages from which the toolkits can be used--Qt, wxWindows,
GTK+, and Tk are all cross-platform toolkits; there's OpenGL for
3-D, if you want that; Python, Perl, C++, and Java all have options
to produce native executables. Why can't you just pick one of those
languages, pair it with one of those toolkits, write your client,
publish a set of single-download native executables, and be done
with it?
