  Here's my excuse to bring up the subject of gtk.e, a library started by
David Cuny but not finished.  This library is (I guess) mainly for the
linux world but is (I guess) supposed to be cross-platform.

  Is there any chance that someone could be motorvated to do some more
work on it?  Even if it is not completed, more work on it would help
greatly to do projects with it.

  I was tentatively planning to re-do and/or translate my program DMAK
(Diet Monger @$$ Kicker) for the linux world.  ( According to a search on 
freshmeat they are kinduv deficient in nutrient programs. )  But there is
not enough stuff in gtk.e to make DMAK using gtk.e.  For example I can
use addItem to put items in a list box, but I can't remove items. 

  Besides my own little personal goals, making gtk.e more complete would
probably significantly expand Euphoria into the linux world.
