The Pimpls in the src directory exist to reduce compilation dependencies. There are (were) a lot of header files that are #include-d by BufferViewPimpl.h and by BufferPimpl.h. Given that the Pimpl is, by definition, an implementation detail, we decided to separate the public interface (BufferView.h) from the private implementation. Don't try and do everything at once. You've told us that you'd like to unify all the GUI global objects inside a single GUI Application class. Sign that off first. You can always file bugs in Bugzilla for stuff that you think is wrong and would like to come back to later... Angus
