[PD-dev] Windows GUI question

[joerg piringer]

i want to draw text.
i want to implement something like the maxobject lcd but more 
powerful/faster and for text only. i want to draw massive amounts of 
text, so tcl/tk would be much to slow i think
it would be great if you could send me the source.

the other thing i am experimenting with is a standalone app (in java, 
not the stone age language c++). the connection is via net (e.g. localhost).
