I've seen the reference to g_thread_enter() and leave() for general GTK programming. In a panel applet, there doesn't appear to be such a place to make these calls around. Since none of the standard gnome desktop applets seem to be threaded, I wonder if this is considered an option. Any thoughts? _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
