This would be in a similar fashion to way Python can use Windows Forms. On Linux I believe this would be Mono (<a href="http://www.mono-project.com/docs/gui/winforms/" target="_blank">http://www.mono-project.com/docs/gui/winforms/</a>). Basically I think I’m looking for something similar to Python’s “import” and C#’s “using” features. If no one has anything, any hints on how a feature like this might be implemented.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Basically, I have been working on implementing genetic programming in Erlang and would like to provide a GUI front end. The WxWidgets front end that comes with Erlang is difficult at best. I’ve used several different GUI kits on *nix and Windows platforms but WxWidgets seems the most difficult for me. So I’m trying to see what else is available. I followed Joe Armstrong’s quest earlier this year and didn’t see where he came up with anything.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Thanks.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='color:#888888'>Alan<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><br>_______________________________________________<br>erlang-questions mailing list<br><a href="mailto:erlang-questions@erlang.org">erlang-questions@erlang.org</a><br><a href="http://erlang.org/mailman/listinfo/erlang-questions" target="_blank">http://erlang.org/mailman/listinfo/erlang-questions</a><o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></div></body></html>
