What do you think about something like this:<br><a href="http://www.lucidtoolkit.org/layout_expression_language">http://www.lucidtoolkit.org/layout_expression_language</a><br><br>The way I view it, GUI stuff creation has 3 steps:
<br>- widget creation<br>- layout <br>- event binding<br><br>a lot of the spaghetti code I produced was due to the fact that I wasn't disciplined enough to break code into this distinct steps. <br><br>regarding the layout language, I would rather learn a few more idioms than have write AND READ through lot of noise created by methods names and ALLCAPS parameters.
