As I understand it, the interface description (XML) is interpreted at run-time to actually construct the Ncurses interface. Is this correct? Is so, are you considering the possibility of ``compiling'' an interface description directly to, e.g., Scheme code, in order to strip that level of interpretation? OTOH, on the Scheme side, one could use macros to that end. Also, are you planning to write a simple GTK+ (or guile-gnome) back-end as well? :-) Thanks for your work!
