Ok, I'll look there.. I noticed that GZILLA actually does something
similar, maybe if Raph could explain how he did this (hint, hint, wink,
wink).

Too bad.. In what way were you going to make it more robust, please
explain.

I really think that this would be needed. It would be nice to have an
ftp for ALL the gtk stuff. Maybe even a REAL gtk homepage. Something
like the Delphi-exchange would be nice. A spot where all the
gtk-programmers (not many yet i guess) could send their stuff, and some
info on-line, this way the idea for a user written doc on-line could be
possible. It just takes someone that is willing to maintains this.
