Re: [gtk-list] reading an optionmenu setting

[Jeremy Weatherford <xidus xidus net>]

This may wind up being pretty messy/overkill for your app.  For mine, it
happened to work out well this way.

What I do is to give each GtkMenuItem I create an 'activate' event which
calls a function unique to the option menu with the ID number of the item
as the data.  In my case, that function does something as soon as the item
is picked.  In your case, you might want it to just store the item id or
its contents in a global variable.

This is obviously not a 'reasonable' solution, but it does work.
