In C++? Absolutely not! No, GNUTS is being designed/written in C for
maximum portability and ease of adding bindings for other
languages. Does it make the code a bit harder than if it were C++?
Sure, but that's OK. I like a challenge. :)

I'm also thinking about adding a small shim at a later point to make a
plugin architecture, but that may or may not make sense. Bottom line,
though, is that I desire for GNUTS to be to the GUI as libmailbox will
be to mailbox access. Now, we'll see when it gets transferred to
savannah (in process...). ;)
