in thread GUI for GNU Go

I am sorry. I guess I should have clarified. I was looking for a Perl GNU Go front-end. I did find several others. But Perl/Tk is as good of a language as any (if not better) for doing GUIs and I was surprised to see that GNU Go did not exist in Perl.

Yes, I see now that the link I posted was Java. I'm really not into that either, myself! I find Java to be slow and the GUI development painful in comparison with Tk. I love Tk. Continue your project, and upsurp the Sun-users :) I downloaded cygoban 1 just for kicks, and that appears to be a C (or something) Tk program, however I think the Cygoban 1 GUI interface is rather awkward and could definitely be improved. Well, that, and it's not being maintained anymore.	[reply]
