The Mozilla project has developed XUL, which seems to fit your description of a UIL nicely. Another nice feature of XUL is that it's implementation independant. As long as 'whatever' has XUL support, it'll work. Theres also the Gtk .rc files, but those dont really fit the definital of a UIL. McDoobie chris@dont.spam.me
