A few years ago one of the architects at Adobe published some slides on the software engineering aspects of PhotoShop, unfortunately I couldn't find them on the web when I tried recently but I believe it stated the codebase was well over 1 million lines of C++ and the GUI (including Adobe's own frameworks) accounted for more than half of that... GUI's often *are* the program rather than a way in to use it. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
