I'm not in favor of this. I don't think that glib does a better job at most of the things that are important to PSPP. If there are exceptions, then we should fix that. But I don't want to add a dependency without a compelling reason. -- Ben Pfaff email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://benpfaff.org _______________________________________________ pspp-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pspp-dev
