These examples should be included under User Output - graphical. --Short Circuit 01:59, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

They should also (obviously) be changed to display "Goodbye, World!"--Mwn3d 02:27, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
Currently there is a problem with the page User Output - graphical, for most languages you can fill the task with GTK or Qt or Tk or Xlib or still other things so if each lib was filled for each language the page would become too large.
Also as the task does not tell to give one example by available GUI lib, the contributors have chose one or two, but don't provide something exhaustive.
So IMO, the page User Output - graphical should be split by GUI libs, and if you wish to keep this page around, for each language give a link until the available sub-examples, for example for OCaml I would give a link to this current page Xlib_simple_window#OCaml and also Tk_simple_window#OCaml and GTK_simple_window#OCaml...

That page is too simple a task to split up by library I think. If I just want to know how to make a window in a language, I don't care what library I use. Splitting it by library might also make the pages too small if one language has a library available to it that another doesn't. I think it works fine to have the examples marked with the libraries they use just so that all of the examples for one language are in one place. --Mwn3d 20:08, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
