it sounds like you created a different design. can you describe it?
I simply used your suggestion of using event-channel on the current event
and using (interactive "e"). This works quite well, but given that you have
implemented the other stuff I backed out the changes. I think putting the
image instance in a hash table is the Right Thing. Either way it works.
Viva consumer choice.

none that are so closely attached to widgets.
i do have my own mega-patch, which does a lot of things to event-msw.c and
a lot
of other files, e.g. adds new error-trapping stuff around a lot of
code. i'm
finally about to get the changelog for this done.
so basically, don't do any reindentation changes or major rearrangement of
code
in your mega patch, and don't worry about the rest; it should
merge
without too
much difficulty.
Ok that will be cool. My patch should fix a lot of the GC problems that
people (e.g. John A. Turner) have been seeing, since I have gone through
the instantiation / deletion behaviour with a fine tooth comb and recoded a
lot of it. Maybe after both patches are in widgets will be reasonably stable.
This may be my last patch for a while, my wife may be in labour .....
