- First party, actually, since I wrote many of them ;)

- The difference between the GUI libraries Voodoo uses, and the ones for
- example Thor uses (yes, it does use GUI libraries), is that the ones
- used by Voodoo are shared, while Thor has them linked in to the
- binary. All this means is that Voodoo's libraries can be used by
- several programs at once with no extra memory requirements. I have
- AmiPOP, Grapevine and DaFTP open right now, using those libraries.
