	Hey, I'm back ;-). Just thinking back about this "core dumping event",
when you call the "detroy" signal of a wm.

	See, I said It would be back ;-). Now, two qustions about the way a
user can close a window. The user can close the window, with the cross, on th
etop right, yep? So, looking in testgtk.c and helloworld, I understood that
this i the "delete_event" call. Now, what is the "destroy" event? Is it really
usefull to connect this signal, because, I can't see any way to activate it.

	And now, a question in which you will see I'm a biologist ;-). When you
destroy the window with the wm destroy event, this dumps a core. I don't like
that. Xterm take time to write a "connection close" message in stderr.
	Because this can be a way for a computer illiterate user to close its
application, is there a way to prevent the core dumping? See, I have 600 users,
and because some are working on part of proteins called "core", It's hard for
me to make a "delete_core" script (even if it could be possible to have the
type, etc., I know).

	So, is it in the plan? I missed something?

						Thanks for your help.

P.S.: I will also make applications for childs, so I have to prevent several
misuse of the application ;-).
