thank you both for your replies and correcting me.... toplevel windows
and glade autogenerated c code is what i have at the moment... about
the argument if autogenerated code is a bad thing.... well i dont have
much experience but i am starting to struggle a little bit now the
application is growing... but it really depends on what you wanna do i
guess...

it is indeed, however let me redescribe the scenario a bit more
correctly this time... let's say i have two toplevel windows win1 and
win2, one visible and hidden, each window has one button which when
pressed hides the current window and shows the other. my problem is
that on the callback looks like button1_onclicked (GtkWidget,
gpointer) the button pressed is passed as a parameter and i can use
lookup_widget to retrieve the toplevel window (or any other widget in
the window) but i don't know how to retrieve the pointer to the other
window...

cheers,
