Mhm, now that I read just another load of follow-ups, I think it would be
good to create a language as someone proposed.

This would describe screens, and actions, acting on curses and X in the
same script...

The advantage is clear: many users can contribute their configuration-
scripts and do not have to bother to much with the userinterface.

Only - this I think I cannot do - it is to big a task.

If someone can do such a great thing, I think I would retreat to using
the language creating some scripts - if not, I think we should stick
to the OI/uib-stuff.
While xview is nice, I think OI is much more real
ObjectOriented - and it is more easy to provide two userinterfaces
using the same functionalitycode with true objects...

Cheers, Michael Will - away for a week - sorry.
