your claim may be 100% true, it probably is, but it doesn't affect my bug report. I'm claiming that from a app-developer point of view, the documentation could be improved such that coding will be more productive. The documentation is there to facilitate app-developers to make good use of gtk, and exploit all the possibilities of gtk in the right way. The better the documentation, the better the app-developers can make use of gtk, the more and better gtk apps we will get. Documentation is *very* important, and every improvement of the documentation is thus an important improvement. regards, Olivier _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
