What is xclass?

Xclass is a Win95-looking GUI toolkit, it is Xlib-based and is written in C++. Although it is mainly wm-independent, some of the planned features might require special support in fvwm95, for example, applications using a MDI mechanism for managing child windows.

The following set of classes are currently implemented:

• Simple widgets, as labels and icons
  
• Push buttons, either with text or pixmaps
  
• Check buttons
  
• Radio buttons
  
• Menu bars and popup menus
  
• Scroll bars
  
• Scrollable canvas
  
• List boxes
  
• Combo boxes
  
• Group frames
  
• Text entry widgets
  
• Tab widgets
  
• General-purpose composite widgets, for building toolbars and status bars
  
• Dialog classes and top-level window classes
