Re: libglade autoconnect misses some callbacks

["Tyson Lloyd Thwaites" <tysonlt webmedia com au>]

Thanks Martyn,

I am actually using it on Linux. I did try manually connecting the
window_show event, and it connects fine, but never gets called when I show
that window.

I imported the exact code of the glade output, so I know the callbacks
*should be called. Oh well, I will keep hacking!!

Cheers
