	Great :-) thanks for that, I can now play with gtk-demo more
effectively.

	Looks fine.

	Well - my feelings on that are very mixed indeed. I think it might be
far more profitable to modify at-poke to set the tree's name to that of
the Text interface' contents rather than the other way round.

	The reason is that we have an AtkText:changed signal, so that we can
sync the contents of an AtkTextified object with reality, but there is
no 'name changed' signal. Thus I think for anything potentially more
dynamic than a label we should leave the name NULL. What do you think ?

	I'm happy for you (personally) to commit changes (such as the above) to
at-poke, send a patch to the list as you do if you would,

	Regards,

		Michael.
