I'm doing a line by line translation from wxEuphoria to EuGTK.

I was afraid you were doing something like that. It will mean writing lots of extra code to try and emulate the way wxWindows works, when there are perhaps easier and more user-friendly ways directly available. Plus, you'll end up with a less than optimum result.

For instance 1: Colors - don't use 'em. A bad idea for more than one reason. for instance 2: Putting everything in one window. That's the Windows way, but that doesn't mean it's the best way. It's more polite to let the user decide how he wants to lay out, size, and view the information.

I will drop color coding in the nutrients list and use prefixes instead, like I used "* " and "# " for foods. That's one less thing for me to figure out.

About multiple windows instead of all in one window. That will come under consideration after I get the program to work. Re-designing the program and learning EuGTK both at the same time is more than I can handle.
