 ThoughtTracker Frequently Asked Questions (And Such That Might Be)
--------------------------------------------------------------------

 Q: My C++ compiler fails to compile ThoughtTracker and issues a lot of
    errors.  What to do?
 A: ThoughtTracker is known to compile with GCC (EGCS) 2.95.2, and probably
    later versions thereof.  It may compile with others, as I've tried to
    keep the code ANSI-conforming, but at least older versions of GCC will
    most likely reject it.  Hence, upgrade your compiler.

 Q: Why GTK-- rather than pure GTK+, which would be more commonly available,
    and wouldn't drive dependencies way up, requiring a sufficiently
    versatile C++ compiler?
 A: In my experience, programming GUI applications in non-object-oriented
    languages soon results in pretty chaotic a mess of code, whereas object-
    orientation prevents this by design.  It's true that the resulting
    binary is larger than written in pure C and its compilation is more
    demanding, but from the developer's point of view, the code is better
    structured and thus more maintainable than the mere C equivalent could
    ever be.
