Yes, that's logical approach if one approaches from higher-level language, otherwise, just having a wrapper over C(++) is loss. That's what I likes in gtk2hs & wxhaskell bindings. > But using all those wrappers-on-wrappers do get a bit "oniony". gtk2hs provides direct higher-level API. > Using a new shiny language, tends to naturally fade after a while. Ahh...That's probably the main problem then since "When there is a will, there is a way." I spent sufficient time with Haskell that I can appreciate D's blend of functionality with its elegance and higher-level features, but we need some spark of functionality as well in the form of GUI, databases etc. Sincerely, Gour -- But a person free from all attachment and aversion and able to control his senses through regulative principles of freedom can obtain the complete mercy of the Lord. http://atmarama.net | Hlapicina (Croatia) | GPG: 52B5C810
