What i am saying is that there is *no* end user documentation for gtk. I believe all the raw information is available in the API docs to which we have been referring in this thread, but no one has yet made the effort to extract the information relevant to end users and form it into useful end-user documentation. That would be a valuable project for someone to take on. Just make sure this document is installed on the system so emacs can refer to it :). -- Eric Gillespie <*> epg@pretzelnet.org Build a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day.
