IMHO nothing what i would call "Tabs"... The last time I looked at the possibility to implement "real" tabs in GTK, there was a problem of attaching GtkNotebook to a widget. It's possible to bind a Gtk tab to a fake widget or to the same basic frame. This produces a warning, but should basically work by binding GCallback from a tab to any function that we can use to implement Emacs-specific tab handling. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
