WINE more or less works and it is an attempt to reverse engineer a totally closed system. As I said, Cocoa and Carbon are well documented and a lot of Cocoa is based on code that is now opensource (gnuSTEP).

There is an old expression about using a sledge hammer to kill a gnat. I see no duplication of work a simple print system; there isn't a lot of work to duplicate in any case since I am suggesting a *simple* system for a single user to drive one or two printers.

If GwenView doesn't use the same code that SVG Part uses, perhaps there are architectural issues that need to be addressed. Yes, whatever is done it should be available in all apps.
