Hi John,

This looks great!  I just have minor stylistic notes:

Rather:

* gnu/packages/gtk.scm (gtksourceview): New variable.

Please try to keep lines below 80 chars.

Please use the same style as the rest; in particular, no line break
after an opening paren, no hanging closing parens, and two semicolons to
introduce comments that are on line of their own (see ‘HACKING’.)

(Nice that you managed to get the X tests running, BTW!)

> +   (synopsis "A text widget that extends the standard gtk+ 2.x

Rather like “Widget that extends GtkTextView from GTK+ 2.x” (no final
period, no “A”.)

Should be ‘pspp’, not ‘<pspp>’.

OK to apply modulo these cosmetic changes.  Could you post updated
patches?

Thanks!
