Are any GUI toolkits a good fit with Gambit?
At the moment I only need a text interface, but the text would be change all over the screen (or window). In the 80's I'd use cursor controls on a VT100, but I suspect I can do better nowadays.
In the long run I'll probably want some menus and images.
Currently using Gambit on Linux. Portability to other platforms is not necessary, but would be nice.

Not that I'm aware of.
Probably the very most relevant thing would be getting a OpenGL (as in, hardware accelerated scrolling etc.), crossplatform toolkit running, that would deliver for modern day apps.

Hendrick - On Linux I use pstk (dickey, holm, busch, 2004-2008). It has suffered only the mildest bitrot (extra widgets in Ttk 8.5, correct version checking). I can email you the version I am currently using, if you want. (send me an email to fred (dot) weigel (at) zylog (dot) ca )
That gives you easy menus, text, and even graphics. The code is pretty much portable to any system that supports tcl/tk (that includes Windows and Mac).
Fred,
I just discovered pstk last week. If you've got a working, updated version, I would suggest you fork the initial repo on bitbucket/github, and link your code to gambit's dumping grounds.
P!

Yes, please make your updated version of pstk available on GitHub or BitBucket!
