Opps...first of all, let me stress that I'm not a GTK
developer...just a user.
Anyway, I *believe* that 1.2.x is supported in the sense that if
you had a question and sent it to [EMAIL PROTECTED], someone (even a
developer) will reply if they knew the answer. But, I don't think GTK
1.2.x code is going to be changed since work is being done on the
development version of GTK (v1.3.x) for GTK 2.0 .
Take a look at the mailing list archive and type "gtktext" and any
of these words as a search term: broken, bug, etc. I found this one
message, even though I was looking for a more recent one which I read on
the mailing list many months back:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2000-December/msg00324.html
And to handle text in GTK 1.2.x, you should use guitext if there's
a window of text (instead of a line of text). As for the new way to
handle text, I ported my code from GTK 1.2.x to 1.3.x in a relatively
short time; so I wouldn't panic.
Sorry if anyone read my previous e-mail and began to panic... :-)
Ray
