Beware that as of Gtk2.0 GtkCList is obsolete (use GtkTreeView instead).

I had problems with dimensions as well; since I used many obsolete
widgets, I decided to recreate the GUI part, since it's a nice opportunity
for code-cleaning process. I'd never really do it otherwise, so this
"feature" came in really constructively for me! ;)

Best wishes,
