Hi,

I haven't really used GDK , but on various occasions I wondered
if it was possible to use my exsisting System.Drawing based code in GTK#
applications.  The developer shouldn't have to learn a different  drawing API
just because he wants to use GTK. I might have some drawing stuff I want to
use in a SWF application just as much as in a GTK# application.
