I'm not sure what your point was, but if you want GnomeZip to know if the file
it created was changed, you just need to set an IOChannel thing on it, and
GnomeZip will be informed of changes I believe.
That way GnomeWord doesn't need to know if GnomeZip created the file and doesn't
have to do anything to get it updated.
