There is a very handy program called gtk-demo which contains many demo
programs complete with source code. gtk3-demo is for GTK3. They're in
the gtk2.0-examples and gtk-3-examples packages on Ubuntu. Check, for
instance, "Dialog and Message Boxes" in the do_dialog() function. You
can double-click t
I don't really understand what max-width-chars would be useful for.
Can't you set a "natural" size for a widget instead of a "natural" max
char width? If I want to ellipsize it won't do me any good if
"..." is the same as "...".
I can see there is gtk_set_size_request for setting minimum w

Then g_remove must be a macro for a function in glib/gstdio.h, not stdio.h.

The basic idea that one must understand about programming is that of
paradigms and concepts. They are really stressed for C++ and higher
level stuff (scripting languages notwithstanding ofcourse). But if
you're gonna use C you're gonna write paradigms and concepts that

Maybe there are corner cases (although the platforms GTK
My analogy had nothing to do with memory use. It had something to do
with code beauty which was all that Bill Atkinson was about. It was
all that article was about. You got it exactly the other way around.
Efficient use of memory at the expense of ugliness was the thing to
avoid in that article.

I'm not saying this is really important and it should be done soon.
I'm merely stating that the value of having gtk_cleanup() would be
greater than zero. That is, regardless of how much trouble it would be
for someone to write, if it would end up in the codebase it's value
would be greater than the
So it's better to use suppresion with Valgrind then to add a
gtk_cleanup() counterpart to gtk_init()?
It's better to print something to the display and then put electrical
tape over it?

Some people really don't get this but it's a fact that people like to
work with a Bill Atkinson. Not so much with hackers (if you read the
above link).
Childish? Maybe. Just hope some people get my point.

There is already gtk_init(). It's only logical it should have a counterpart.

I hate to throw fuel in the fire but this is just absurd!
How complex is freeing 200 pointers? O(1)?

Hello,
I've noticed that GtkComboBoxEntry default height is 2 pixels taller
than GtkEntry.
Also, GtkComboBox is 2 pixels taller then GtkComboBoxEntry (4 pixels
taller than GtkEntry).
GtkButton is, by default, the same height as GtkComboBoxEntry.
I would like to make all these the same height from
