Ok, auto_resize does currently not consider column titles. I can change that.
To do something like your "gtk_clist_columns_autosize", you have to call:

for (i = 0; i < clist->columns; i++)
  {
    width = gtk_clist_optimal_column_width (clist,i);
    gtk_clist_set_columns_width (clist, i, width);
    sum += width;
  }

Do you want a special function for this ? I'll add it then.

gtk_clist_set_column_auto_resize toggles the auto_resize flag of one
column. This column then automatically resizes to its optimal width
every time this width changes. ... That's what it should do. What do
you mean with "infinitely wide" ? Maybe there's a bug in the new code...

Mmmh, I think what we really need is a:

GtkWidget * gtk_notebook_nth_page (GtkNotebook *notebook, gint page_num);

Is that ok for you ?
