I had read about the problem in Gnome (but didn't know the CTRL-L shortcut, again, thanks), but didn't realize it was a GTK (un)usablilty (mis)feature as well, and dumped them in general long ago due to this sort of crippling, and hadn't seen it. I'm definitely inclined to agree with Linus on this one. Yeah, I'd miss the browse button too, but the dialog simply loses huge amounts of functionality if either the point/click/browse or the text or combo box for directly typing it in, is missing. Again, thanks. Ctrl-L? How was /that/ supposed to be obvious? <shaking head> -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
