SqueakGtk status

Here are some news of the SqueakGtk project :

I've extended the Gtk support with new widgets :
  • GtkAboutDialog (added some fields)
  • GtkFontSelectionDialog
  • GtkAccelLabel
  • GtkLinkButton
  • GtkScaleButton
  • GtkVolumeButton
  • WebKit
  • ...
I've corrected a bug with the memory management, it seems that Gtk doesn't like
g_object_unref when there is a parent widget. The support of Gtk
is more stable but there are others problems in the events handling
this is an active waiting so it uses a lot of cpu times, an other problem
is when the user save the image a "Gtk" object in Squeak only contains
a pointer in a C structure and I need to save and restore this structure.

I'm working on the Omnibrowser support and in the improvement of the
new tools :p

Some basic tools :

Squeakzilla a new browser :p

Good! :) You're doing a nice work. Could update the pbwiki sometimes or the project page at least?
