Yeah, if there existed some set of functions/macros that could be used to specified user interface stuff at a "high level", while still allowing controlled way of adding GUI specifics at some points, the dream could become true.
I'd love to work on that, if time permitted. But maybe such thing already exist in the Scheme/CommonLisp world, and could be used or be a source of inspiration ? 2009/4/1 e <evier...@gmail.com> > i may be in the minority in thinking that eventually (not as a priority, I > understand) more and more of the useful stuff from Java should be wrapped > ... even if it masks the documentation.
