Re: problems using vte /and/ gnome widgets

[Azrael <azrael azrael-uk f2s com>]

Ironically after despairing for ages.. then mailing the list.. I just
worked out where to put -L/usr/lib -lvte in the glade generated Makefile
and now get the terminal to work.

Anyone able to tell me how to make the terminal run a command upon
creation? thanks!
