Hi everybody,

Here at IRCAM we are experimenting strategies to port OpenMusic,
a visual programming environment dedicated to music, from MCL (Mac)
 to ACL. Other visual tools will be built on top of OpenMusic, too.
(My colleague Jean Bresson already contacted people at Franz concerning
this subject)

As a part of this process, I have some naïve questions to submit to you all:

- What multi-platform GUI library would you recommend ? (working at 
least on Win32 & MacOSX)
   We would be particularly interested by advanced capabilities (= 
sprites, bitmap, "beautiful" widgets, etc...)...

- Is CBind a sufficiently mature tool to be used to access C/C++ 
libraries on
   Win32 and MacOSX platforms ? My idea would be to use it to access 
sound & possibly GUI libraries.
   Note that I haven't had the time to test CBind enough yet.

- Are there good sound libraries for ACL ? (for Audio & MIDI)

Thank you in advance,

Best regards,

Rodolphe Saugier (beginner with LISP!)
