I will give it a quick look in the coming days to see if I can get easy 
enough
with it to do some code ;-).
If that works, I don't mind doing it with wxruby...

I have seen some cvs integration with the kde browser (whatever that 
one is ;-)
And it was really impressive and useful.
I guess that we could start in C++ if I don't find enough time to dive 
into ruby.

I guess that wxwidgets is the toolkit we should choose, after all we do 
have a
wxguru in the mailing-list ;-).

Concerning the Gui, I now have a few questions concerning the 
c++/python/whatever api
that is available.
I have had a look at the check_moved.py, but didn't manage to find the 
arx.py file containing
the module with the arx functions.
And if it was to be coded in c++, what would be the necessary includes ?
Would it be includes, or most probably something like libArX.so ?
Is there a documentation of the api ?
Tell me if I am bugging with stupid questions  ;-)

I will try to look at the silc documentation tomorrow...but I am 
wondering which is important:
Getting out that gnome-vfs dependency, or having the gui ?

I have now 9 questions and answers in the "ArX nutshell"... I will add 
a couple before sending the
proposal to the list for comments.

Au revoir,
