When I said I was planning on building a Motif/Lesstif interface to Guile, some people suggested that perhaps I should use GTK instead. I rejected that idea out of hand. My apologies to those people... I now realise that I didn't actually know what GTK was. I had presumed that it was some equivilent to Stk - i.e. The Tk from Tcl/Tk fame. The question now arises for me - whether I should continue to port Motif to Guile, or whether instead, I should port my applications to GTK. I had always assumed that Motif/Lesstif must be the right thing partly because having a standard way to make all widgets work together must be a good thing (Xt) and Motif was a standard. Now I'm starting to wonder, especially since I noticed Netscape is moving to GTK. Any comments?
