Anyway!

Just so.  If somebody wants to write a _GUI wrapper_ for this stuff, 
that's fine.  Just don't bother me about it...   :-)

I've been looking out for certain applications,  and recently ran across
one that looked pretty good.  Except that it was GUI-only,  and required
certain libraries,  etc. in order to be able to run it at all.  And since
the GUI in question wasn't the one I use here,  and since some of the other
aspects of it were out of the question with what I'm doing here,  I'm not
gonna use the program.  It's a shame,  really.  People ought to be aware of
these aspects of program design...
