Re: Is there a canvas widget

[Ralph Walden <rwalden tripos com>]

I don't suppose we could propose a re-name of the GnomeCanvas
to GtkCanvas, or at least an alias.  I believe that this question
will continue to come up.  If someone does not ask, he/she would
just assume that this widget isn't available unless he/she drags
in all of Gnome....
