i just learned that TRUE == 1 and not 0. i haven't used the access()
call in awhile. i am trying to catch catch errors before they crop
up.
the way i see my application being used, there won't be any xterms
or konsoles open to print a stderr or stdout. So: is there a way in
gtk to have a message dialog open that prints warning or whatever to
the new user?
#define eprintf(...) do { \
GtkWidget *dialog; \
dialog = gtk_message_dialog_new ((GtkWindow *)window, \
GTK_DIALOG_DESTROY_WITH_PARENT, \
GTK_MESSAGE_ERROR, \
GTK_BUTTONS_CLOSE, \

gtk_dialog_set_default_response(GTK_DIALOG (dialog),
GTK_RESPONSE_CLOSE); \
gtk_dialog_run (GTK_DIALOG (dialog)); \
gtk_widget_destroy (dialog); \
