Hi all,

There are now alpha bindings for the gtk 2.0 - the "gimp tool kit" - for FreePascal.

See http://sourceforge.net/projects/gtk2forpascal/

The bindings are not complete yet, but they can already be used for simple programs. gtk2 for pascal contains the following units:
GLib2, Pango, Atk, Gdk2, Gdk2PixBuf and Gtk2.

The project now needs people for testing and packaging. Currently they can only be downloaded via cvs.

What about putting this into the FPC packages tree? OTOH it won't change much and kylix is
supported as well.

We put it on sourceforge to get more audience.
The bindings are quite big and need some testers and more devels to complete the macros and types (h2pas needs improvement). The gtk2 is a common lib, so I think it is a good idea to add it to the fpc packages as soon as it got maturity.
