[Gordon Matzigkeit <gord fig org>]

Hi!

Would somebody involved with GNOME like to take on this important
task?  I'd volunteer, but I don't know gtk+ well enough.

Basically all that's involved is in modifying Emacs' lwlib (Lucid
Widget library) to work with gtk+.  It already works with Athena
Widgets and Motif, so there's plenty of context.

Please contact RMS if you want to do this work,

    This isn't a bug report so much as a question about a potential
    feature.  Are there plans to have Emacs use GTK as a graphical
    toolkit?

I would like this to happen--if anyone is interested in working on it,
please contact me.
