Another idea would be to use wxWidgets as a backend. But CLIM is more higher level and perhaps better for mathematic notebooks like in Mathematica and perhaps in Axiom, but if CLIM uses wxCL (the wxWidgets Lisp wrapper for Common Lisp, which is availalbe as an alpha version), then CLIM would be available for Windows, Mac and Linux, too, because wxWidgets works on these systems (and with wxEmbedded for PDAs and other small platforms). -- Frank Buß, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.frank-buss.de, http://www.it4-systems.de _______________________________________________ Gardeners mailing list [email protected] http://www.lispniks.com/mailman/listinfo/gardeners
