Hi all, 

First, thanks for all the exciting code and ideas that are coming out of the FoNC project.  To steal a phrase, I feel like Christmas and I got a new pony.  There's a lot here, and it fits closely with where I want to be: in a system I can control, in all its parts, without needing gigabytes of development tooling.

I'm in idst, looking at the Cairo-based canvas examples, with the intention of using OpenGL for the display surface.  These days most machines have at least some level of GL support, and I've always thought it's a shame to load the CPU with graphics while the GPU is idle.

Anyway, just a quick question: the function/canvas/_cairo.st file is an autogenerated set of bindings to Cairo, apparently built by parsing the Cairo headers.  Does anybody know how that was done?  If I'm really lucky, there's an example code somewhere in all this, that was used to generate those bindings.

For the moment I'm writing binding methods by hand, which is fine as finger-training for the languages here; but obviously a more automated approach would be useful.  And safer.  :-)

Cheers,
Kevin Kelley
