Ok, considering your point below: when one file is used for all guiobjs
then it makes more sense for it to be "general".

that might be a better idea, the differences aren't that big. I guess it
won't remain as direct as one abs for each guiobj, but it will make things
simpler. Ok, I'll keep doing it that way.

No, don't worry. I only meant that I should familiarize myself with the

ok. I didn't knew why, I had the idea that it was the other way.
