RE: Running external program inside a widget

[omar crea jusan it]

Excuse me but I'm new to GTK+: at which moment I have to call the system()
function to run the external program I need (a web browser, in this case)? Do I
have to use two different source files to implement this mechanism (run the app
as a GtkPlug, give it the ID of the GtkSocket, ecc.)? If not, which are the
steps to implement this on a single source file?
Thank in advance for answers.
