True. I think GraphApp is about the lowest-common-denominator, working
on Win/Linux/MAC, and iirc, one or two of the controls had to be emulated
even then.
There really are a lot more controls/widgets/whatever you choose to call
them,
that should be added to get from the LCD to a point where most people will
be
satisfied. We're spoiled, I guess.
