Owen Taylor cc223eeff6 Fix stupid error introduced last night that was making things decidedly
Sun Jun 24 11:29:35 2001  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/x11/gdkimage-x11.c (gdk_image_new): Fix stupid error
	introduced last night that was making things decidedly not work.

	* gtk/*.[ch]: Patch from Kristian Rietveld adding 80 getters
	so that we have getter/setter pairing everywhere it makes
	sense. (#55767)

	* gtk/gtkradiobutton.[ch] gtk/gtktoolbar.c tests/testgtk.:
	Rename gtk_radio_button_group to gtk_radio_button_get_group, add a
	deprecated compat macro. (#55516)

	* gtk/gtklabel.[ch]: Add functions
	gtk_label_set/get_use_underline(), gtk_label_set/get_use_markup(),
	gtk_label_set_label(), which mirror the property API for GtkLabel.
	Make gtk_label_get_attributes() only reflect the attributes
	set by gtk_label_set_attributes.

	* gtk/gtknotebook.c (gtk_notebook_set_current_page) gtk/gtkcompat.h: Rename
	from gtk_notebook_set_page().

<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
GtkRadioButton
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
A choice from multiple check buttons.
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
A single radio button performs the same basic function as a #GtkCheckButton,
as it's position in the object hierarchy reflects. It is only when multiple
radio buttons are grouped together that they become a different user
interface component in their own right.</para>
<para>
Every radio button is a member of some group of radio buttons. When one is selected, all other
radio buttons in the same group are deselected. A #GtkRadioButton is one way
of giving the user a choice from many options.
</para>
<para>
Radio button widgets are created with gtk_radio_button_new(), passing NULL
as the argument if this is the first radio button in a group. In subsequent
calls, the group you wish to add this button to should be passed as an
argument. Optionally, gtk_radio_button_new_with_label() can be used if you
want a text label on the radio button.
</para>
<para>
Alternatively, when adding widgets to an existing group of radio buttons,
use gtk_radio_button_new_from_widget() with a #GtkRadioButton that already
has a group assigned to it. The convenience function
gtk_radio_button_new_with_label_from_widget() is also provided.
</para>
<para>
To retrieve the group a #GtkRadioButton is assigned to, use
gtk_radio_button_group().
</para>
<para>
To remove a #GtkRadioButton from one group and make it part of a new one, use gtk_radio_button_set_group().
</para>

gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(radio1), entry);
/* Create a radio button with a label */
radio2 = gtk_radio_button_new_with_label_from_widget (GTK_RADIO_BUTTON(radio1),
"I'm the second radio button.");
/* Pack them into a box, then show all the widgets */
gtk_box_pack_start (GTK_BOX (box), radio1, TRUE, TRUE, 2);
gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(box), radio2, TRUE, TRUE, 2);

<!-- ##### STRUCT GtkRadioButton ##### -->
<para>
Contains only private data that should be read and manipulated using the
functions below.
</para>
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_radio_button_new ##### -->
<para>
Creates a new #GtkRadioButton. To be of any practical value, a widget should
then be packed into the radio button.
</para>
@group: an existing radio button group, or NULL if you are creating a new group.
@Returns: a new radio button.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_radio_button_new_from_widget ##### -->
<para>
Creates a new #GtkRadioButton, adding it to the same group as @group. As
with gtk_radio_button_new(), a widget should be packed into the radio button.
</para>
@group: an existing #GtkRadioButton.
@Returns: a new radio button.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_radio_button_new_with_label ##### -->
<para>
Creates a new #GtkRadioButton with a text label.
</para>
@group: an existing radio button group, or NULL if you are creating a new
group.
@label: the text label to display next to the radio button.
@Returns: a new radio button.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_radio_button_new_with_label_from_widget ##### -->
<para>
Creates a new #GtkRadioButton with a text label, adding it to the same group
as @group.
</para>
@group: an existing #GtkRadioButton.
@label: a text string to display next to the radio button.
@Returns: a new radio button.
<!-- ##### MACRO gtk_radio_button_group ##### -->
<para>
Retrieves the group assigned to a radio button.
</para>
@Returns: a linked list containing all the radio buttons in the same group
as @radio_button.
<!-- # Unused Parameters # -->
@radio_button: a #GtkRadioButton.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_radio_button_set_group ##### -->
<para>
Sets a #GtkRadioButton's group. It should be noted that this does not change
the layout of your interface in any way, so if you are changing the group,
it is likely you will need to re-arrange the user interface to reflect these
changes.
</para>
@radio_button: a #GtkRadioButton.
@group: an existing radio button group, such as one returned from
gtk_radio_button_group().
<!-- ##### ARG GtkRadioButton:group ##### -->
<para>
Sets a new group for a radio button.
</para>
