As some people may know, I've been experimenting with a new combo. I've
already some code, in libegg, but it's still experimental. I also
implemented an experimental completion feature in the GtkEntry, though
it's really really small and easy. The completion code announced here is
far more advanced.

Anyway, all of my code mentioned above, including the completion thing,
are in libegg, in the libegg/combo directory. The "test-entry" app tests
the completion, and the TextCombo in the "test" app has completion
enabled. The EggEntry is just GtkEntry renamed to EggEntry with 5 new
completion-related functions.

Just to let know what I've been working on,
