gtk-server

anyone used gtk-server, say, with a scripting language or any language? it's basically a program that you talk to through a pipe or TCP connection and it does all the gtk stuff for you. i'm using it at the moment; it's pretty kick ass. you can just create a window from your terminal.

ie if you want to whip up some simple gui for whatever reason in bash or perl, this could be really helpful

I had a look at newLISP. Things I like and dislike:

+ Lisp-1
- Fail scoping. That "dynamic scoped except if you create a context" thing is bullshit.
- Unbound symbols get automatically initialized to nil
+ Implicit indexing, though I'd have much prefered a special syntax that expands to some macros according to some macros and pattern matching system that would allow you to do e.g. (display my-list[element]) .

What do you fags think about newLISP?
