Don't get me wrong, it's a very good idea to separate the core code from the GUI code
That was the original motivation, by the way.
but wasting energy on multiple frontends is not.
Currently, there are only two ports (Qt and Cocoa), with two maintainers (Me and Massimo), thus it seems manageable. It could also be that our encapsulation is done in such a way that it turns maintaining to an easy task (although I'm not 100% sure about that). In any case, I retain your advice as far as other (gtk...) ports of the GUI. In effect, perhaps we have better things to do...
Actually I think there is a lot of room for collaboration between the two projects.
Yes, there are probably things to do in this area (although time, which is the most important resource, is currently missing). _______________________________________________ Texmacs-dev mailing list Texmacs-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/texmacs-dev
