Hi. I am very new to gtk programming. My basic task is to display the long listing of files contained in a directory of the host machine on a button click. By long listing ,I mean the content of ls-l <directory name> Basically i want to know the connectivity between the button click event to the displaying of data on a widget on the GUI.I am using the tree-view widget for displaying the data.To be more specific,I want to know,how I should code for the callback function for the button widget so that It will display the contents of a given directory on the tree view widget? Kindly reply at the earliest. Thanking You All. Debashis Mishra _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
