The SLgtk package binds the Gtk2 and GtkExtra widget sets to the S-Lang
scripting language (www.s-lang.org). SLgtk wraps more than 2200 functions
from Gtk2 and its constituent libraries, includes over 4000 lines of
sample code in 40+ working guilets, and bundles a code generator (SLIRP)
which can be useful for building additional S-Lang modules.
SLgtk also includes a visual version of the powerful S-Lang "where"
command, extensions to and performance enhancements for several GtkExtra
widgets, and a pixbuf loader for the FITS image file format widely used
within astronomy.

libgdamm 1.3.2
libgdamm
libgdamm provides C++ wrappers for libgda for use with gtkmm. libgda is a generic
database API with several database provider implementations.
libgdamm is now becoming usable, with actual working examples.
Contact us in the usual gnomemm places - see http://www.gtkmm.org. There is a libgdamm
component in bugzilla's gnomemm product. It is waiting eagerly for your patches.
It's in gnome's cvs in gnomemm/libgdamm.
Changes
1.3.2:
Command, Connection: Added default parameter values, so you don't have to specify so much.
Added Parameter, ParameterList, Value, and used them in the API.
Added "simple" and "introspection" examples, which work.
