" Thanks for the GTK help. Again I don't mean to knock the work been done but= wouldn't be nice if it was Ada much further down.Yes we can make meta widg= ets in Ada-GTK but adding a lower level widget would likely involve C with = Ada-GTK. If all the widgets were coded in Ada and the primitives in the C/C= ++ core were nicely wrapped and isolated, then a new programmer could just = learn Ada and not have to worry about C/C++. Again I have very limited expe= rience with threading but I am guessing that if certain widgets were also p= rotected, it would make writing a multi-threading GUI APP much nicer. I would also like to be able to fly and fire lighting bolt out of my butt. = Not sure which is more realistic
