I recently did some hacking on the gtk-version. I got rulers to work
(but rather slow), font switching for font_80 and font_132 and some
(rather ugly) color mapping.  The next challenge will be X-selection
support (copy & paste).

I still have to polish the code. Should I get a sourceforge user-id and
commit it back to CVS when it's done?
