GNOME/GTK versions

[dan davidson conexant com]

Hello,

I hate to ask a question that may be obvious to some, but-->
Do X GUI applications built under GTK 1.2 (RH 7.2) run on newer versions
(GTK2.0/RH7.3, GTK2.0/RH8, and GKT2.2/RH9)?

If not, is there a method to determine the GTK version (e.g., 1.2 or 2.0,
etc.) from a shell script so that the shell script can run the correct
application built for that system?


Thanks ('ave a g'day),
Dan Davidson
