Thats true, but GTK 2.x has bindings for a non-GUI interface for GTK apps
(ATK), I havent tried it but I intend to implement support for JAMin. It
requires a bit more work when creating the UI, but not a huge ammount,
especially if you use things like glade.
I've no idea what the result looks like / how usable it is.
