Well, on my resume I claim to be the author and mainainer of cursesgui
and textgui, so I probably ought to actually do that.  I've no idea
which direction the Anygui codebase has gone in the past year or so
(by the way, "Hi again, everyone"), so it might take me a little while
to get current again. IIRC, I got frustrated with some aspect of
forward-porting the textgui/cursesgui code to the "latest" (as of
early 2003) Anygui architecture, but I really have no idea what was
happening back then. I'll let you know when I've got a handle on it.
I'll step up to whack bugs in Tkgui as well, if no one else wants
to.
