If I understand what the function will do, then I am not sure exactly how it
will help! I need it to respond to left and right mouse button clicks but
how can I block the drag left mouse button from having an effect using that?
I've tried playing around with it but I can't get it to do anything nor can
I find some examples - can anyone give me a hand with this function who has
used it before??

I am wondering about there being a bug in the clist about this. When I trip
the "button_press_event" event I can look at the x/y values of the click.
When I'm in the clist title bar the y value starts from 0 and goes up.
However, when it goes onto the clist main the y value resets to 0 and then
goes up again as I move down the list. Shouldn't it carry on going up even
when it starts on the list? The fact that both the first clist item and the
clist title can both return a y co-ord of 0 is why I'm having  my problems -
I cannot tell them apart! Any comments on this??

Oh, I'm running GTK v1.2.9 on a Sparc Solaris 2.6!
