I got the gtk device specs in faces breakage. Debian unstable, Linux
2.2.18 system, no surprises. Will update and try again.

It's your pidgen. I want it in the release tarball too; use your best
judgement as to what will shake the bugs out fastest.
-BP> How's the attached patch?
Fixes, thank you. menubars, scrollbars = Lucid, dialogs, widgets =
Motif. Shudder. But that's the expected config.

Good, good.
A polite request: please don't _ask_ people to test the GTK stuff
itself until March 1. Many will, anyway, me, too, and I won't
discourage them.
But the primary purpose over the next few weeks will getting the
_supported_ code in shape. I won't hesitate to postpone introduction
of GTK until the next release, or rip it bleeding out of the release
tarball, if I think it threatens stability of other code. That's not
good for GTK.

-BP> Yup - pretty sweet. :)
Good, saves me doing it (badly :-]). But don't tell Jamie Zawinski
about it yet; I want to see his face when he hears about it. Jeez, an
open source project doing something that works _for_ the users for
once. :-)
Betcha we have Custom/GTK that rocks by the September release with
libglade in there. Almost makes me want to volunteer to run it.
