It would be really nice to have unified GUI tools for csound. I think many of us were already quite disappointed by the FLTK limitations, and everyone seams to have a personal solution for this (whether MacCsound, Blue, Python, Tcl, Juce, PD or MAX/MSP... ). I know there are many different approaches to csound and there are people using csound with different programming skills but maybe we would all profit with a GUI language that would be common for all csound users. I wonder if it is on the developers agenda to work on this? 
Thanks,
Luis

I am wondering what GUI tool kits might be capable of providing me with the tools I need to control my synth; sliders, knobs, voice/patch selection, and possibly setting recall.  So far, I have glanced at Tcl/Tk and wxwidgets, but I'm having trouble finding information pertaining to this sort of application that is not inundated with more general/complex info.  Any suggestions are welcomed. Also note that I am using windows.  Thanks.
