Things to do before deciding a merge is feasible:

- Font handling is the biggie. Current problems with it:
|
|
|
|
|
* The GTK2 font selection dialog only mentions client-side
|
|
|
|
|
fonts, but the actual text display code can't cope with them.
|
|
|
|
|
+ Clearly one or the other needs to be fixed: the font
|
|
|
|
|
selection dialog certainly needs to agree with the fonts
|
|
|
|
|
actually available in the program.
|
|
|
|
|
+ I want to keep being able to use my server-side fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
+ People used to GTK2 applications will probably want to use
|
|
|
|
|
their client-side fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
* Also, the GTK2 font selection dialog doesn't allow filtering
|
|
|
|
|
to monospaced fonts only (and gnome-terminal, for example,
|
|
|
|
|
just has to cope if the user selects a proportional font).
|
|
|
|
|
+ We can live with this problem if we really have to, but
|
|
|
|
|
it'd be nice not to have to.
|
|
|
|
|
* Colin's idea is that we should simply cook up a font selection
|
|
|
|
|
dialog entirely of our own, which handles both client- _and_
|
|
|
|
|
server-side fonts, and correspondingly soup up the text
|
|
|
|
|
display code to deal with whichever it's given (if necessary
|
|
|
|
|
by switching between two totally separate pieces of code).
|
|
|
|
|
This sounds like a sensible plan to me, or at least the most
|
|
|
|
|
sensible response to a generally insane situation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The call to _gtk_container_dequeue_resize_handler wants
|
|
|
|
|
revisiting, and preferably removing in favour of a cleaner way to
|
|
|
|
|
do the job.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- gtkcols.c is currently a minimal-work GTK2 port of my original
|
|
|
|
|
GTK1 implementation. Someone should go through it and compare it
|
|
|
|
|
to a real GTK2 container class, to make sure there aren't any
|
|
|
|
|
large chunks we should have reimplemented and haven't, or indeed
|
|
|
|
|
that we shouldn't have reimplemented and have.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Uses of GtkList should be replaced with the non-deprecated
|
|
|
|
|
GtkTreeView.

|
|
- Investigate the shortcut mechanism in GTK2's GtkLabel, and see if
|
|
|
|
|
it's worth switching to it from the current ad-hockery.
