I started on a WxWidgets port for Y some time ago, it is still available under wxYWin at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ywin-extralib/ I stopped working on it due to a lack of time, and there was only limited interest. However, if you are interested in writing patches for it I'll add them and make new releases. Hopefully the large number of WxApps might encourage people to develop Y so it is capable of running them. Richard Hills
