So perhaps you could tell me how to design a GUI framework in FP and without OOP. To me it seems that GUI is the main domain the OOP was crafted for, but if you have some nice functional ideas, perhaps you could help me to redesign my framework. The base of the framework can be browsed here: https://bitbucket.org/panicz/slayer/src/94c9dde264759cbbd8d4a88d2581b77f55cc0bd6/guile-modules/widgets/base.scm?at=default What is particularly relevant is the <widget> class. I recently started creating my own OOP framework atop of GOOPS, so the same class could be equivalently written as https://bitbucket.org/panicz/slayer/src/94c9dde264759cbbd8d4a88d2581b77f55cc0bd6/guile-modules/extra/noobs.scm?at=default (see at the bottom) But I don't see any good alternative to OOP.
