Re: [open-cobol-list] Cobol + GTK

Hi Brian

Thanks so much for your valuable input!

It's been cold here too in Toronto but we are getting away with murder 
this winter overall....

Say I just wanted to bounce some ideas around.....


Thanks to your work we have a lua binding now:

Have you considered using the Lua GTK binding? I was worried that it 
might be hard to manage all the variables. The Lua C-to-lua stack is 
find but I was thinking that it might be quite a lot of work. Am I 
wrong? Do you think there would be namespace issues or some other 
challenges? It seems that the Lua API likes globals.

Gfortran was built using a python script(included in the source tarball) 
to generate much of it's code:

Do you think something like this would work for opencobol ?

Your awesome, I have found you all over the net, the Ada google group, 
an opera forumn, the lua wiki(for your binding) and of course at 
http://opencobol.add1tocobol.com. You are a very bright guy and a 
tireless worker!
