I can't wrap an API that I don't understand It's not that you don't understand it exactly, it's that you don't agree, correct? I stated reasons above. I just looked through my entire application list; and have only 2 out of ~50 which I think would obviously be "fine" as multiprocess (namely file-roller, evince). The rest are games (about 15), system tools (abrt, selinux, ~10), apps like gedit which i know are single process (~10), etc. Obviously - for any app that desires multiple windows (which is actually only ~15 of my apps) you can do both. But again - the point is that single process is more efficient. Also - the single process approach makes it trivial to avoid data loss in the scenario where you open a file twice (i.e. right click on "my-notes.txt" to open in Abiword from nautilus, later forget you had it open and do it again), which is definitely a very compelling argument to me. If it's not for you, well I don't know what to say. _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
