Buuuuurn the heretic!  And burn me for the same herey while you're at it.

Have you looked at Glade?  It's a visual interface building thing which
can also create function prototypes for you, and I *think* it generates
all the code for the event loop too.  It's not tied to any particular
language either, which is Good.  Requires gtk.
