Nice to hear. You can look at my code (that is why I released it), but
don't look too close ;-). It's currently a bit...messy. I have peeked a
lot on gschem to learn how GTK+ really works (www.gtk.org is a good start
at least) and also how to build aclocal/autoheader/autoconf/automake
files. Next relase will also (ab)use the automake. Then it will also be
possible to _install_ the stuff:-)

That was my intention, but since my home network "emitted smoke" on sunday
I have been "netless" (and will probably be a couple of more days). I
would be very glad if you could fix it. In the future I could probably do
the uploading myself, but for the time being I would be very happy if you
could solve it. Thanks.
