Right - I had caught that post, but I was more curious as to the CLI environment - what are the impediments to using that part of the playground on Linux or Mac, or are they too intertwined to make that viable?

I wrote about this here:

    http://dylanfoundry.org/2013/01/18/why-is-the-opendylan-ide-only-on-windows/

One thing that I didn't mention in there was the possibility of getting the DUIM Gtk+ backend working again.  I've written a binding to gobject-introspection to make it easy to generate bindings for anything using gobject (like Gtk+) in a clean and good way.

I did some serious work on this again yesterday and it is getting much closer to being able to generate bindings. This would be a great project for someone to help with during the hack-a-thon.  I'm planning to do some more work on it today and I think fracek is planning to work on it this week, so it may be pretty well off by the hack-a-thon. We'll see!

I wonder if this is something that might be good to work on during the hackathon?

It would be great if it worked on Linux/Mac/etc so that people following along the Quick Start in DPG could try things out while they're reading (http://opendylan.org/books/dpg/start.html)
