This is definitely a user-friendly idea. I think Anjuta has something like this in their code, it's worth a look. I suspect they use a lib-ified devhelp. I think the introspection work generates metadata in an intermediary xml which could eventually be used, but using devhelp is more practical today. _______________________________________________ Glade-devel maillist - Glade-devel@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/glade-devel
