Dynamic Windows
Dynamic Windows is an application framework that was designed to make it easy to create dynamic applications with a modern interface. It was modeled after the original GTK library on Unix. It uses the concept of box packing to create a dynamically resizable interface. Dynamic Windows is used by Mark Hessling's Rexx/DW package.
There are stable source modules for OS/2, Unix (with GTK), Win32 and MacOS X (Cocoa). 64bit builds are supported on all platforms except OS/2. The library has been tested on x86, amd64, ppc and sparc.

- Entryfield /Editbox
- Multiline Entryfield/Editbox
- Combobox
- Button
