I was afraid of that.  I dont know which of the current GC devs
actually understand the guppi interfaces sufficiently to port them
over (I know I do not)..

See my previous mail.  It's like a GtkCombo..  The user types
into the entry and after they stop typing it does a backend query
to fill in a popup of matches to the user's typing and lets the
user complete on them.

It's something that does NOT require the full list of matches to be
pre-loaded into the widget (it uses a callback to obtain the list of
matches when the user stops typing).

I've got some python code that someone sent me which I'm willing to
forward on to someone else to translate to C.  But I don't even know
if the python code is exactly what we're looking for.

Have the gtk-doc been run through the program to create the HTML
and put up on the web?  That's what I was hoping/looking for.
