RE: GTK+ doc

[id072647 belgacom be]

	No, it's just a table of content sorted that point to the pages or
sections.
But all is sorted like an index book. 
E.G.: I want gtk_window_new. Where to find it if I don't exactly know the
documentation? I have to go in GTK_CONTAINER... I don't say that the current
1st page is not good enough and I don't want to replace it, but it's for
people that know enough the manual and they know that in the  "scribble"
source code or something else that there is an exemple with signal x. Just
let to people several choices. It's just my point of vue as new gtk+
programmer.

Other examples:

E.G.: "activate" signal
E.G.: callback of "clicked" signal (button)
E.G.: "switch_page" signal
...

	It will be faster to find something.

I think this person was actually asking for something like the Packages
and Classes frames on the left side of the Java API Reference.  But
instead of packages and classes, the Gtk+ API Reference "contents" would
contain signals, widgets, events, etc.  Gtk-doc doesn't currently
generate anything like that.
