Either in UNIX > or Windows? There was an announcement that people are working on a GTK binding for GNAT, but I don't know how far this has developped so far. (Ask briot@gnat.com and jbrobecker@west.raytheon.com) A GTK binding would be a major step to allow Ada programmers to participate in the GNOME project, which works on a very cool better-than-Windows98 GUI desktop environment for Unices. Another important step would be a free Corba binding for Ada, since Corba is the glue that will bind the GNOME applications together (like OLE in Windows). Oliver.Kellogg@vs.dasa.de is working on a Corba binding. http://www.gtk.org/ http://www.gnome.org/ I think these are clearly the way to go for Ada GUI projects. Markus -- Markus G.
