There are no changes in the GTK+-2.6 fileselector that would be visible on a screenshot. What has been improved is that a couple of keybindings have been added and some of the focus problems have been eliminated. These changes improve usability of the file chooser a lot and I think that it can now really be called an improvement over the old GtkFileSelection widget. But of course you will disagree with me. I thought it was supposed to allow actually typing in a filename? The really bad point of the 2.4 file selector is that (at least as far as I can see) it only allows selecting a file, not typing the pathname (at least, I don't see any text entry box!) -- Robert Krawitz <rlk@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Tall Clubs International -- http://www.tall.org/ or 1-888-IM-TALL-2 Member of the League for Programming Freedom -- mail lpf@xxxxxxxxxxxx Project lead for Gimp Print -- http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net "Linux doesn't dictate how I work, I dictate how Linux works." --Eric Crampton
