You still didn't tell your development and target environment... As far as we know, you might for instance be using Cygwin (a Linux emulation package for Windows), OpenVMS, Ultrix, or some embedded environment. Setting an environment variable can be done in several files, or interactively. How to do it depends on how persistent you want it to be, and whether for all users or just you. What your shell setup files are called and where they are depends much on your operating system, shell, and local system administration procedures. And how to set environment variables has nothing to do with gtk as such... --tml _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
