In case people feel inclined to still pursue the CGA idea, one of the following two routes could be taken: - re-expose parts of wxHaskell in a way that forces the user to write applications that look and feel native on different platforms, i.e. a "Common GUI API on top of wxWindows"
I think that this could be done, to have an haskell GUI library instead of a wxwindows binding, wich would be just an implementation. And this decision makes a fast startup because Daan is already trying this.
- write a GUI Builder application for Haskell; it would surely make Haskell itself more attractive as a rapid development language (such a Builder could also cater for the look-and-feel requirements of the different platforms)
Well, this should be done anyway, but maybe not here. Am I unsubscribed to this list, or people do not want to comment on anymore? The main problem of wxwin was, according to (if I remember well) Wolfgang Thaller, that it does not feel native on OSX; so I guess the opinion of some OSX user or developer would be interesting now. bye Vincenzo
