Great. The basic functionality is there. It still has some problems, but
I think they come from the URL-code. Try to display slashdot for an example.
I'll have a look at the code soon, I often get segfaults together with
g_assert()s that failed...


Today, I hacked together a small tgz with a GUI for Express. It's
written with glade, which generates all the necessary stuff for you,
e.g. autoconf-stuff, gettext-stuff, gnome-macros, -includes etc.

It took me 10 minutes to make the small demo-distribution at
http://express.sourceforge.net/express-0.1.tar.gz


I really think glade is the way to go. We can rewrite the whole GUI very
fast with it, and then just cut'n'paste the 'meat' of Express into the
new framework. Then we have all the advantages of GNOME, plus
additional gettext support can be added quite easily in the future...
