Re: Applying font setting universaly

[Dinesh Nadarajah <dinesh_list sbcglobal net>]

Yes something like re-skin and Yes I will be executing code. I tried to
see if gtk_reparse_all, etc from within a GTK2 application but it does
not.

I guess I am essentially trying to get all open applications to reload
the .gtk2rc file to update it self. A global command for all windows?

Thanks.
