Hi Peter,
Mark me down as being interested in the gtk port.

I am trying to compile gddd from the latest svn sources and I'm getting hung up at this point

I saw a previous post about this being an issue with a newer version of bison. I was using version 2.3, so I tried downgrading to 1.35 but I got the same result.
I have no previous experience with yacc or bison. How did you get around this problem?
I am running this on a mostly stock Ubuntu 7.10 machine.

I think I could put some coding time in on this branch with a little direction, but I'm just starting to mess around with gtk programming so I'm not sure how much help I can be.
