+library.  I.e., it allows you to create windows, containing all kinds of
+widgets (buttons, sliders, browsers, menus etc.) with a few lines of code and
+then attach actions to the widgets, i.e., have some function called when a
+button is pressed.  To make this even easier XForms comes with a program
+called @code{fdesign} that allows you to design a GUI for a program directly
+on the screen and which then writes out the necessary C code for it.")
