Dear Bill,

IMO the obvious choice would be BSF4ooRexx which provides a bridge to Java and 
its existing GUI tools. I believe it works for all Win/Mac/Linux platforms.

Since it is just (!) a bridge to Java (that everyone have on his machine 
anyway) there should be no risk for the user.

I have not used the GUIs but I have used XML parsers (DOM, SAX) via BSF4ooRexx 
and it is just as easy as a regular ooRexx call to a class, you only need to 
know the syntax of the Java class you want to use

I think Rony can point you to a demo using Swing.

Hälsningar/Regards/Grüsse,
P.O. Jonsson
