I am attempting to write a GTK application that not only uses GUI input from various widgets but also has an area for the user to type in commands and be shown text output. I was thinking that a gtk_text_view widget could be used for this. Essentially I want an area that is almost like a terminal screen, that is something along the lines of what one would do with no GUI present like printing out questions to stdout and getting input from stdin. The previous output (and input) would remain in the window and eventually scroll off but not be editable. I would like the arrow keys to bring up previous commands (kind of like tcsh). In response to a command from the user, the code may have to print out a question requesting further information from the user. I assume such a thing can be done with a text_view widget. Just have to get a lot of the logic right. Since I am fairly new to the GTK API, I asking if anyone has something like this already set up or if there is some application out there that has something like this that I can utilize or look at. _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
