Tools like Delphi/Kylix/... will not help you at all - it's much faster to write an UI in Tk by hands then using such a WYSIWIG. But, if you want WYSIWIG GUI tool, just use Glade - it produces a portable XML representation for GUI dialogs, and, I belive, it'll be pretty easy to use it from Caml. > So using CamlIDL, it should be easy to make Kylix use our favorite language and > get interfaces (portable under both Linux and Windows) in no time ? Why do you want such a havy and thick GUI layer? GUI is for scripts! Use Wish, it's portable. Much more portable, then Bugland tools. ------------------- Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr
