I'm curious. What is the app your working on. I downloaded
gtk about a month ago, and have been trying to put together
a text editor / wordprocessor as a way to learn the widget
set.

I use the destroy widget method. specifically, gtk_exit().
It works okey when called from a widget such as a menu item,
but core dumps when I call it via the "destroy" method.
