Yes, I'm locking up the program until all the text is read.

I haven't taken the time to test your belief but assuming you're correct 
(and I'm sure you are) that brings to mind a couple of questions ...

Can there be more than one gtk_main() call in one program?  And could that 
possibly help me?

How does MODAL and gtk_dialog_run() work?  Do they both integrate 
themselves with the GTK main loop "behind the scenes"?
