I'd imagine this would be useful both as the backend of normal GUI IM's and also for use where standard IM's aren't suitable. For example, games: you want to render everything yourself, feed input from the user to the IM by hand (since you might be using something system IM's might not like, such as DirectInput), and not tie yourself to platform-specific IM's. -- Glenn Maynard -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
