   Looks nice. Was this done with the Glade interface builder? I
haven't played with it for about 6 months, at that time it was
already very usable for real work.

   Just a suggestion for those that want to get moving on a GUI;
How about a text design document that shows the layout of all the
menus?  A set of indented lists with explanations as needed. That
makes it easier for eveyone to see the big picture, and spot
possible problem areas before they become unmanagable. Example
format;

  File
   New
   Open
   ----
   Save
   Save as...

etc. etc.
