Default sizes for widgets: how?

[Ang Chin Han <angch yoyo cc monash edu au>]

How does one set default sizes for widgets in GTK, without changing
the minimum geometry? e.g. I want the default size for a text widget
to be about 100x60, but with a minimum of 50x30. Currently, the way I did
it is to set_usize() to 50x30, then resize the toplevel window to a
decent size (without setting the minimum on the toplevel window). Is
this the correct way? Sounds a bit hacky to me.


P.S. Thanks to those who sent help on the deiconizing tips!
