Yes, I saw `with-object' on a syntax branch and was about to ask you if I could already commit to that...it seems now it's `using' with-object' feels Guily'er in a way, but `object' is maybe a bit vague? `with-gobject' is longer than `with-g', and both mainly add more crypticness over `object'. `using' is shorter and better than send, I like it :) > It would change all the work you've done on guimax, so I forked and > re-wrote guimax using the guile-gi API that we expect to push today.

I'm working on some silly guimax bugs while finishing up the GTK C backend first and then come back to Guile-GI wich is the preferred UI backend for Guimax, eventually ;) So timing is perfect. On Guix, Guile-GI now needs glib and glib-bin to build, you can pull from https://gitlab.com/janneke/guile-gi.git (and some tests still fail, i'm sure you got that).
