It's in the newconduit branch of gnome-pilot under conduits/file
It's a pretty neat quick hack (TM).

Cool...
I'll try to propagate the changes into the newconduit branch

Okay...
If you need help with generic signal stuff, lewt me know...
If you look at the backup/file conduits, you can sorta see how they
work.
basicly, you just need to do a signal_connect o your function to the
object.  The args should be the same, so you can keep most (all) of the
code from before.
