Well, I am missing an option to use Athena style scrollbars. Actually, this is more a GTK shortcoming (that you can't just configure Athena behavior for all GTK apps), but if I at least have the option to override this at compile time of my most important application, it would be a good consolation. I'd prefer it if somebody implemented an Athena-behavior option for GTK in general. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
