In the end I managed to open a windows this way:
(GTK.GtkMessageDialog new: nil flags: 0 type: 3 buttons: 0 message: 'This is a test.') run
But it opens a blank (actually gray) unclosable window, and I don’t know how to use it farther… > I’m going to try recompiling gst myself if that can helps get it working.
