GTK is the best
Thankyou Irv.
tk/tcl works
The tcl/tk wrapper lets you write lets you write "tcl/tk" code inside OE|Phix and then execute it. You have to learn "tcl/tk" to use it. A wrapper from 2008, as good now as it was, because there is no language translation involved.
The "official" Python gui is a wrapper to tk. How they did this may give a clue to wrapping.
The gui results are dated in style.
Ok if you dont' mind running the tcl interpreter concurrently with OE|Phix. Since tk/tcl is often part of Linux, this does not seem offensive. (Japi|Java|OE does seem odd.)
No clue how one would reverse engineer tk to build a wrapper. If you could add some "polish" to the wrapper it would be appreciated.

Still a mystery to me how to get the .so files to load on Linux. Has anyone actually got this to work? Standing wishlist to get help on this.
be well
