Friends
I am brand new to this mailing list and have joined yet another mailing
list in desperation as I can find no place that describes what gtk
signals *mean*.
I sent this email a couple of days ago, as soon as I had joind the list,
and it did not come through. (Testing: 1,2,3!-)
Eg: From the dev-book documentation
>
> The "cursor-changed" signal
>
> void user_function (GtkTreeView *treeview,
> gpointer user_data);
>

> user_data : user data set when the signal handler was connected.
But *when* is this signal emitted and *why*?
My trouble is I have a GtkTreeView I want to detect when a node (a row
actually) is selected by the user. I am using cursor-changed but my app
is crashing with a seg fault in a manner which confuses my debugger.
I am fairly confident I will get to the bottom of it but I have no
confidence I am using the correct signal handler in this case and a
dozen like it.
In friendly frustration
