Hi

Yes, i received your code and i guess that it would work great. I just
thought that gtk_input_add would notice on its own if a file changed
just by having the filedescriptor. This isn't the case thou and i have
to solve the problem either by using a piped tail or with
gtk_timout_add. 

I thank everyone that has been a part of this question.
