This is my global variable version: #include <gtk/gtk.h>
#include "callbacks.h" #include "interface.h" #include "support.h" GtkWidget *window2, *window1, *label1, *entry1; void on_button1_clicked (GtkButton *button, gpointer user_data) { window1 = lookup_widget(button,"window1"); window2=create_window2(); gtk_widget_show(window2); gtk_grab_add(window2); } void on_button2_clicked (GtkButton *button, gpointer user_data) { label1 = lookup_widget(window1,"label1"); entry1 = lookup_widget(window2,"entry1"); gtk_label_set_text(label1,gtk_entry_get_text(entry1)); gtk_grab_remove(window1); gtk_widget_destroy(window2); } Thanks, Kim ---- "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I am about to start a new app, and would like to improve my programming > style.
