I don't think it can be. At this point, I intend to modify the backends a little, and add a new GDK/GTK+ backend. What I'm not planning to attempt, yet, is replacing the way that procedures compose output. I want to do that, but I don't think it is necessary to get some nicer-looking output for the GUI. > The graphical output will be based on the internal representation > of the tables, and the export will happen from that same internal > representation. > > Any hints on the form of this internal representation? I was just planning to keep around the "struct tab_table" and "struct som_entity" structures and render from them. That ought to get us a long way there. -- Ben Pfaff http://benpfaff.org _______________________________________________ pspp-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pspp-dev
