Example:
I have "-15e" and user presses "1". I should put "-15e+5" into text
entry...

If i will use simple connect and such, code will become more
complex...
It is a good workaround, but i don't really have time for it if i have
any choice.

PB> Btw, you should substitute gtk_signal with g_signal.
Ok, i will try. But anyway? Why does not this work? Any suggestions?

Update: just changed it to focus_out_event. Kinda dirty, but i don't
getting paid for it...

And: strangely, if text field is disabled, connected_after function
will work (just doing nothing, but will). If it is enabled, it does
not. Looks like standard handler does not gives control to the rest
of chain. Is this a bug or feature?

Thanks! This does work.
