I am pleased to announce the first public release of QTDRIVER, an alternative
graphics driver for GRASS. QTDRIVER is implemented using the cross-platform
Qt toolkit. This means that it should be possible to compile it for any
platform that Qt supports. I've built versions for i386/Linux and the Sharp
Zaurus handheld computer.
The Zaurus version is of particular interest as it allows GRASS to be used
without having to install the X Window System.
Source and binaries are available here:

It could be interesting for you to know that I have developed GRASS extensions
for QGIS http://mpa.itc.it/radim/qgis/
(see also devel list:

I think that if you open the QGIS+GRASS project in QT designer and remove menu
and some icons and maybe resize some dialogs, you get a nice user interface
to GRASS for handhelds.

Great!
It is also Free Software under GNU GPL I read from the sources.
Note that this means that you can only link it to the GNU GPL compatible
versions of QT (that is QT Free for X11,/Embedded and Mac),
but not Qt Windows.

Note that it probably is nice if you indictate the status on the
webpages, too:
QTDRIVER is Free Software under GNU GPL.
