This is part of an ongoing port of TeXmacs to gtk and perl.
I want to eventually make the typesetting canvas a gtk
widget and control everything using POE. This very ambitious because
I am new too gtk-perl and POE.

If you are curious, for more info on TeXmacs and this port, see:
www.texmacs.org, http://www.alqua.com/tmresources/port%20to%20perl-gtk
