Subject:	Graphical Environnement for PC-GNU compiler

Hello DJ Delorie !
Hello GNU users !

I am a french student, and I am working on a big projet of graphical interface
for GNU compiler on PC. I is a object-oriented library which defines all
classic features of graphical interfaces : windows, buttons, menus...

It is now a mono-application interface, ie you can run only one application
at a time. It would be great to run several programs with non-prehentive
multi-tasking, as Microsoft Windows or Macintosh system do.

But I still don't see how to implement that with GNU. My problem is that I
have to load several executable codes (.out) which might share a common object
library. In a practical way, I think that the first program would install the
library in memory, and then would load the first application which could be a
sort of program manager. The with this program manager, the user could start
other applications.

The interrest of that projet over existing products is that it uses GNU
compiler and so is very fast. My library produces programs very easy to write
for a programmer who is aware of object-oriented programming, and those
programs are very small in code size, and very fast.

Another question : What is the number of last version of GNU for PC ?

Thanks you for your interest to this project, see you soon on E-Mail.

Eric.
