as you wish but don't expect me to do anything.

Having ported dozen of dialogs to MacOS X, I can tell your that lot of
platform code is redundant, and I did use a lot of sed programming.

I'm just proposing to have a thin layer abstraction to minimize the
platform specific code. One of the reason it didn't got through is that
it needs someone to do it on Windows. I have done the Cocoa and the Gtk
binding, but for Windows I couldn't as at that time I didn't even have
an intel machine and as I don't know windows programming.

It is not complete, just because I just implemented what I need. But so
far I haven't had any comment feedback on but just people not using it.

Maybe we should just drop anything bug Gtk. After all Mac users seems to
not care as they are all waiting after OpenOffice, etc.

So be it. I'm just switching in the "don't care" mode.
