        * added gtkaccelmap.sgml. other updates.

Mon Nov 12 23:08:37 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gtk/maketypes.awk: fix type utils generation on unix.

	* gtk/gtkaccelmap.[hc]: new files, implementing a global accelerator
	registry.

	* gtk/gtkaccelgroup.[hc]: major API/implementation revamp:
	removed GTK_ACCEL_SIGNAL_VISIBLE, gtk_accel_group_get_default,
	gtk_accel_group_get_entry, gtk_accel_group_(un)lock_entry,
	gtk_accel_group_add/remove, gtk_accel_group_handle_add/remove,
	gtk_accel_group_create_add/remove, gtk_accel_group_entries_from_object.
	introduced ::accel_changed signal for change notification, and
	gtk_accel_group_connect/disconnect to connect closures to accel groups.
	made gtk_accel_group_attach/detach and gtk_accel_group_activate private
	functions.
	deprecated gtk_accel_group_ref/unref.

	* gtk/gtkaccellabel.[hc]: changes to make accellabels pay attention
	to accel group changed notification and basically operate on closures.
	removed gtk_accel_label_get_accel_object and
	gtk_accel_label_set_accel_object.
	introduced gtk_accel_label_set_accel_closure, and for convenience,
	gtk_accel_label_set_accel_widget.

	* gtk/gtkitemfactory.[hc]: removed accelerator propagation code
	which mostly moved into gtkaccelmap.[hc].
	removed gtk_item_factory_parse_rc*, gtk_item_factory_dump_*
	and gtk_item_factory_print_func.

	* gtk/gtkmain.c: call _gtk_accel_map_init().

	* gtk/gtkmenuitem.[hc]: introduced gtk_menu_item_set_accel_path(),
	that associates an accelerator path with menu items, through which
	persistent accelerator settings on menu items are enabled.

	* gtk/gtkmenu.[hc]: added gtk_menu_set_accel_path() so accelerator
	paths of menu item can be default constructed to allow installation
	of accelerators on menu items that don't come with an accelerator
	binding by default.

	* gtk/gtksettings.c: fix STRING type rc settings by special casing
	them appropriately in the parser.

	* gtk/gtksignal.[hc]: allow a class function offset of 0 for
	gtk_signal_newv().

	* gtk/gtkwidget.[hc]: accelerator API revamp.
	removed ::accelerator_add/remove signals, gtk_widget_accelerator_signal,
	gtk_widget_accelerators_locked, gtk_widget_remove_accelerators and
	gtk_widget_(un)lock_accelerators.
	accelerators maintained through gtk_widget_add/remove_accelerator()
	are not runtime changable now, the correct sequence to setup a
	widget for runtime changable accelerators is now:
	  gtk_accel_map_add_entry(accel_path, key, mods);
	  _gtk_widget_set_accel_path(widget, accel_path, accel_group);

	* gtk/gtkwindow.[hc]: accelerator changes, proxy and coalesce accel
	group changes (as well as mnemonic changes) through the new signal
	::accels_changed.

Sat Nov 10 12:08:56 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gtk/gtksettings.c (_gtk_settings_parse_convert): properly handle
	GString->string conversions.

<para>
The #GtkMenuItem widget and the derived widgets are the only valid
childs for menus. Their function is to correctly handle highlighting,
alignment, events and submenus.

As it derives from #GtkBin it can hold any valid child widget, altough
only a few are really useful.
