Huh? Well, of course we have build widgets on top of the toolkit we use. What are you trying to prove here? I fail to see your point. > Whatever the origins of the name, at present GTK+ is no more "the > GIMP toolkit" than Gimp-Print is "the Print plug-in for the GIMP". I don't agree. I do think that GIMP and GTK+ are in fact still more tightly coupled than you receive it. GIMP developers are constantly contributing to GTK+ and they do take part in decisions made for GTK+. At the same time GTK+ developers are giving the GIMP developers a hand when it comes to improving and debugging The GIMP. The two projects are not as diverged as perhaps gimp-print and gimp. Sven
