+Very simple preprocessor for making GObject objects with inline C code so that
 generated files are not editted.  Syntax is inspired by java and yacc or lex.
 The implementation is intentionaly kept simple, and no C code parsing is done.
 
 Reasons:
        - C is a perfect (well mostly) language, no need for another language
-       - Writing a fully featured GTK+ object is a hassle
+       - Writing a fully featured GObject object is a hassle
        - Need for a generator that doesn't require changes to generated code
        - I like how Java writes method code directly into the class
          definition.
