Whaaw's GUI does not look great to me. It looks extremely minimalistic. If the point is only to remove a few dependencies then I'm not sure it's such a great idea.<br><br>Besides, Parole is being developed quite fast, and already has a decent set of features. There are a few things that I dislikein Parole's GUI (don't have them in mind though), but I think a discussion about these with Parole's author could get them sorted out. He is a nice developer and very attentive to comments from downstream users.<br>

</div></div>Oh yeah, I wouldn't even recommend it being default in Lucid. Just<br>
curious as to what others thought of it in general, maybe expose it to<br>
others who may be interested in the project.<br>
<br>
Parole does seem interesting, I'll have to look into it more. On a<br>
pretty non-important note, I severely dislike their icon/logo..<br>
