All graphical apps in gEDA use GTK.  I don't know how you intend to
handle non-graphical apps (gnucap), but I suppose one could write a
think wrapper.

BTW:  I just posted a question for you at the Google application
page.  Please take a look at it and perhaps give it an answer, either
there or here.

Thanks!

Stuart
