That is just because you are used to it ;-)
The closest competitor seems to be GIO.
I am flattered but I still view GIO as an *experiment* to get a feel of how a medium-level GUI API should look like, so it is not nearly a competitor to a real library. Regards, Daan. btw. Maybe you should make the objects the last argument of instance functions. That way, you can use an object oriented style of programming (if you like that): infixr 0 # -- matches nicely with ($) (#) :: self -> (self -> a) -> a self # f = f self main = do mainWin <-initHTk [text "Hello World"] label <-mainWin # newLabel [text "Hello World"] button <-mainWin # newButton [text "Bye"] ...
