Given that vala and ruby both use the C API at some level buried underneath, and cover it up with some syntax, how about starting a project to do something similar on top of lablgtk2? I for one would welcome this since my current project uses lablgtk2 and Gtk is a pain in the rear. Rich. -- Richard Jones Red Hat
