  20. This is probably a question out of left field, but have you thought
  21. about doing the GUI by taking the C code, running it through something
  22. like SWIG (http://www.swig.org/), and then building the GUI using Tk
  23. (http://www.scriptics.com/)?
  24.  
  25. I realize that this has the disadvantage of connecting Kermit to a
  26. huge program that you don't have any control over, but it also
  27. keeps you out of the business of having to your own portable GUI
  28. library.
