RE: [gimpwin-dev] Re: console window

Ahhh... I didnt realise Glib-GObject was a specific domain.  My mistake... I
must miss just those specific events.  The problem I had was with signal
connections still failing in a console window.  I have fixed it now so I
can't remember exactly what it was that caused it, but I think it was 

  gtk_signal_connect(GTK_OBJECT(invalid_object), ...)

this was probably why.

> g_log_set_handler ("GLib-GObject", G_LOG_LEVEL_MASK | G_LOG_FLAG_FATAL |
> G_LOG_FLAG_RECURSION, dummy_log_handler, NULL);
