Hm, this sounds quite nice. Too bad it's Windows only. I'm thinking of similar but based on GTWVT, GWXC + XHGTK. I didn't try XHGTK yet (I haven't yet been able to build XHGTK on Windows), but theoretically it may be possible to have a CUI base, and start to extend this, or gradually convert windows to GTK ones, which has similar effect, but by skipping one stage. BTW, if anyone has experience with building XHGTK on Windows, I'd appreciate any information. After installing a great amount of GTK dependencies, I stuck with this: -- Package pixman-1 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `pixman-1.pc' (...) include\xhgtk.h(22) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'glib.h': No such file or directory -- (with the downloads on the GTK page, I didn't even reach this far) Brgds, Viktor
