Hi, could you please link the place you found this news?
I downloaded the tarball yesterday, and there is no mention of gtk in the
README file, nor at the scilab home page. Maybe they just forgot to upgrade...

I don't think it mentions the gtk interface any where in the documentation
that comes with the source.
I only found it when browsing through the code (routines/gtksci directory).
the "--with-gtk" switch is defined in the configure.in.

scilab 2.7 compiles fine on my computer with this switch, and results in
a clone of the Tcl interface but using gtk 1.2.

Thanks for a hint!

I added gtk use flag to -r2. Please test.

Actually there are quite a few fixes to # 28245 there as well, but these
do not influence gtk stuff..
