Announce: Gtk-- 1.2.3

[Karl Nelson <kenelson ece ucdavis edu>]

Gtk-- 1.2.3
-----------

Gtk-- is a C++ interface for the popular GUI library gtk. Gtk-- provides 
convenient interface for C++ programmers to create graphical user 
interfaces with gtk's flexible OO framework. Highlights include typesafe 
callbacks, widgets extensible using inheritance and over 110 classes that 
can be freely combined to quickly create complex user interfaces. Gtk-- 
is free software distributed under GNU Library General Public License (LGPL). 

No major changes this time.  Just some basic maintainence and 
functionality improvements to support dynamic menu items.  Thanks
to numerious bug reports gtk-- is improving all the time.  I will be 
starting the next development cycle shortly.  Those interested in
following the changes should be sure to sign up on the gtkmm-list.

I have standing reports that yacc is broken on Red Hat 7.0 beta.
Since the yacc files included with gtk-- are generated, we can't
take patches as the files will simply be overriden.  I am
currently researching the options.
