sure, and I don't see the point of worrying about non-X systems *now*
Also I find the future work for GUIIising stuff other than dialogs rather
intimidating, like building a mountain with a teaspoon. I'm sure it's not too
bad but I don't even have an idea of the landscape at this point; I'm really
just hoping for some education...

I agree (and in fact I have an old-style patch for FormExternal coming this way
very soon)
