Thanks. But there is something I still don't quite understand. a GTK application has a main loop listen for any GTK signals (for example to handle the close window event), right?

Thank you for any advice. --- Dov Grobgeld <dov.grobgeld@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi, > > (I'm moving the discussion back to gtk-list as I > didn't actually mean > to send it private.
