Creating windows

[pyrophobicman]

There's probably a simple solution to this; I'm not very good at C++.
How do I create a window in Linux in C++? I looked at a possible
solution, gtk, but the code I tried to copy (from a program called
Gnuitar did not work. I have it, and the program built, but I could not
harness it.

All I need is a window that I can (hopefully easily) put info into.

Thanks,

That's off topic for this newsgroup. But you can search this
group for 'windows' and you may come up with suggestions for
other newsgroups.

Search for "windows" and get 51000 results. "window" and get 28000.

This is completely a c++ question, as I am writing in c++.

The subject of this news group is the C++ language proper, not any of
the myriad libraries or operating system APIs you might access using
C++. For that, there are more specific news groups.

C++ does not do windows, platform-specific extensions do Windows. In
your case, I'd suggest wandering over to
news:comp.os.linux.development.apps.

http://www.gtk.org/tutorial/

Or try any of gimp toolkit newsgroops, but gtk is C so
you could use http://www.gtkmm.org/.

Then there are pure C++ toolkits
www.wxwidgets.org or www.trolltech.com

I was sitting in my Ford truck, writing C++
on my laptop. Should I ask for help with
my program in a Ford truck group?
