Yes. I have built a number of GTK apps, but never actually looked 
into it much. I will do so this weekend. We should, however, keep 
in mind that the Mac is one of Xconq's target platforms. Perhaps 
GTK already comes with MacOS X (and could almost certianly be 
built for it), but I haven't checked to see about the options for 
the MacOS 8 and MacOS 9 families. Of course, if Hans and Stan were 
content to just maintain a seperate MacOS GUI, then this is moot.
