I've got a GUI(via allegro (2.2?)) and TUI(custom text lib) that I'm 
willing to donate to the project. The GUI is based on my TUI (ported 
from text to graphics) but is slightly behind in bug fixes and 
enhancements (different source tree. Hmm maybe I should go through 
the effort of merging them). My ?UI supports multiple overlapping 
windows (quite fast, even in graphics mode (640x480x256) on my 
386-33) and cooperative multitasking (via hooks to the main idle 
loop).

If you're interested, let me know, and I'll email them to you. (Let 
me know if there are any limits to you inbox mail size).
Bill
