> Here are two small patches for nuttx.

Thanks.. checked in.

I see from the changes that you are tinkering with the NuttX graphics system.

In the next few days (certainly before the end of the week), I will be released an major update to the NxWidgets graphics package. The main feature of the new release is a tiny window manager that I am calling NxWM. Here is a blurb from the NxWidgets/README.txt:

"This directory holds a tiny desktop for small embedded devices with a touchscreen,. NxWM. NxWM is true multiple window manager but only one window is displayed at a time. This simplification helps performance on LCD based products (in the same way that a tiled window manager helps) and also makes the best use of small displays. It is awkward from a human factors point-of-view trying to manage multiple windows on a small display.

"The window manager consists of a task bar with icons representing the running tasks. If you touch the task's icon, it comes to the top. Each window has a toolbar with (1) a title, (2) a minimize button, and (3) a stop application button using the standard icons for these things.

"There is always a start window that is available in the task bar. When you touch the start window icon, it brings up the start window containing icons representing all of the available applications. If you touch an icon in the start window, it will be started and added to the task bar.

"There is a base class that defines an add-on application and an interface that supports incorporation of new application. The only application that is provided is NxConsole. This is an NSH session running in a window. You should be able to select the NX icon in the start menu and create as many NSH sessions in windows as you want. (keybard input still comes through serial)."
