Re: [Sooc-devel] why Sooc?

[Mike R. <mik...@gm...>]

I don't know that it has to be a console utility.  We should really
just be looking for something reasonably small writtenin C++ or Java.
If a GUI is involved, we can port it to GTK+.  I know this would
complicate the comparison of Sooc with the other object systems, but
Sooc needs to be proven to work well with GTK+ to be practical anyway.
 There's nothing wrong with learning a little Swing, gtkmm, Qt,
networking, image handling, or any other random thing on the fly, I
don't think.  This is especially true if we focus primarily on porting
the object system itself and only worry about the underlying
algorithms in the original code if we need to change it.

So... what small utilities do we (I?) like and would we (I?) be
interested in porting?  I'll be thinking about it; let me know if you
come up with anything.
