That works perfectly thanks, I'm replying to the list just because this is
not available in the "stable" documentation in gtk.org and maybe someone
else has interest on this topic.

Nice addon this GtkBuilder BTW :)

I think I'll try to move on the development of our applications from the
built in code generation to this, the fact that doesn't need an external
library and that connects signals is a big plus over the libglade approach.
