is there a reason why this approach will not work ?

void all_done ()
{
	... wrap up ...
}

gint ok_clicked_handler (GtkWidget *w, GdkEventButton *ev)
{
	all_done ();
        return TRUE;
}

gint button_press_handler (GtkWidget *w, GdkEventButton *ev)

{
	if (ev->type == GDK_EVENT_2BUTTON_PRESS) {
	      all_done ();
	      return TRUE;
        }
  
        ... normal mouse button handling ...
}
