that's a pain for both of us then, since I most probably had a less-complete

oh! so I knew what was a mnemonic after all, I just didn't knew the term.
binding Gtk2::Button->new to [...]_with_mnemonic is very nice indeed!

I'll still have to take a closer look into that. I'm relatively new to Gtk [and
graphical coding
in general]...

ouff.. that's somewhat not so clean...
what is recommended for drop down lists atm (before gtk+ 2.4) ?

I really understand your point of view. The thing is that my application is
meant mostly for
"beginners". I'll most probably port when a Debian unstable pkg comes out (I'd
let the Gtk1
version as it is).
Until then, I'll concentrate on functionnalities (including dirs/files
drag&drop).
And I totally agree, Gtk2 and Gnome2 are definitly nicer than their
predecessors.
But I think I should also consider PerlQt-3... at least take a look.
