That is one way. (GTK + Lesstif) - although the fact it doesn't crash doesn't mean it isn't possible ;) I hit a racy crash at GTK HID start-up under valgrind today (valgrind makes the start-up very slow, so you can hit them easier). Something about a key-press being received and acted upon before PCB was fully ready for it. (I've never seen the crash in normal practice, so I'm not going to go chasing for it). I think with Ineiev's modifications, it is pretty safe anyway.. since he adjusted the patch such that it only effects non GUI hids. Can you confirm that version still works as you wanted? If so, I'll commit it. Best wishes, Peter C. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
