Hello,

Try creating a struct for the information, and pass a pointer to that
struct to the signal handler.

eg

struct dialogdata
{
  Widget *dialog_wnd;
  Widget *ok_button;
  Widget *cancel_button;
  Widget *text1;
  Widget *text2;
};

struct dialogdata *data;

data = g_malloc( sizeof(dialogdata) );

data->dialog_wnd=...;

gtk_signal_connect(........., data);


That's what I'm doing at least. :)
