Good, glad to hear it. I like command-line functionality as much as the next
Linux fanatic, but there's a reason GUI's exist and it should make the user
feel comfortable.

My polite complaints are aimed at mldonkey_gui, but are as valid for _gui2.
I will see what I can put together tonight, but bear in mind that I am
unfortunately not a designer. Perhaps there's a list reader here with good
experience (and possible formal training) with designing user interfaces?

Ps. On a related note, would there be interest in a fully skinnable mldonkey?
It adds some bloat, but eye-candy soothes the eye and possibly draws in fresh
blood to the mldonkey community. It's also much more flexible in terms of user
interface.
