With the GTK+ 2.0 Tutorial found in Debian it is easy to
create Dialogs, even without knowledge about C...
It was realy crazy, as Laila had send me a hand full files
which I have compiled on my machine... It just works.
She had understood un around 2 days HOW GTK+ is working...
She know allready how to use evenst and something like this.

She want to code stuff for the console using slang-utf8
and ncursesw and then some Front-Ends in GTK.

Why C++ if she do not need it?
