I suppose that depends on how you define "future." Do we want to
be using libdialog in the year 2010? No, I would certainly hope
something better will have arrived by then. Do we have anything
better now or in the forseeable next 12 months? No also.
So, if there's anything you or anyone else can do to improve the state
of libdialog, I'm sure it will be of some use.
Oh yeah, and I might as well take this opportunity to state this for
the public record: I DID NOT WRITE THAT EVIL THING. :-)
It was written by some guy in Hong Kong and extended by the slackware
folks. I just added the callback mechanism stuff so that the objects
weren't just "blobs" with no access to internal state transitions.
So blah! :-)
