The GIMP Help System part II: press "F1" while browsing a menu
to show the help page for the menu entry you're currently over
with the mouse.
* app/color_notebook.c: all color selectors have to register with
a help page now.
* app/color_select.[ch]: register with a help string. Removed
the dialog part of the files because it's use was deprecated
anyway (use color notebooks instead).
* app/colormap_dialog.i.c
* app/colormap_dialog.p.h
* app/palette.c
* app/palette_select.c: use a color notebook instead of a color
selector.
* app/gimphelp.c
* app/gimpui.c: minor changes.
* app/gimprc.c: "use help" defaults to TRUE now.
* app/lc_dialog.c
* app/lc_dialogP.h: a special help function which shows the help
for the currently selected notebook page.
* app/menus.c: some weird code which catches "key_press_event"
in all menu shells and pops up the corresp. help page for the
selected item. Embedded the GtkItemFactoryEntry in a new
GimpItemFactoryEntry to allow a help path to be stored.
Will be partially exported and moved to gimphelp.[ch] later to
catch key_press for plug-in menu items (don't try this now ;-)

according to the new help file structure.

The GIMP Help System part 1: Press "F1" in any dialog to pop up
the help page for this dialog.
Moved the widget constructors from preferences_dialog.[ch] and the
query boxes from interface.[ch] to gimpui.[ch].
The dialog constructors take a help_func and a help_data
parameter and install the "F1" accelerator which emits the new
"help" signal.
The "help" signal callback calls help_func(help_data) which finally
has to call gimp_help() which in turn invokes the help browser.
Still have to find a proper way to (1) prevent "F1" being assigned
to some menu item and (2) to catch "F1" while browsing the menu
trees in order to pop up the help for the selected item.
* app/menus.c: a <Toolbox>/File/Help... menu item.
* app/commands.[ch]: a command callback for the "Help..." menu item.
* app/gimprc.[ch]: new boolean gimprc variable "use_help".
* app/info_dialog.[ch]: pass a help function and data to the info
dialog constructor.
* app/tools.[ch]: store the tools help page names in the tool info
structure. Export a special tools_help_func() which shows the help
page for the active tool.
* app/[all files calling a dialog constructor]: pass the dialog's
help page to the constructor.
Most dialogs are now created by gimp_dialog_new() which also sets
up the action_area and the WM delete event callback, so I removed
the resp. code from these files.
Fixed some minor bugs and did some other stuff but didn't change
any logic except dialog creation.
* plug-ins/helpbrowser/helpbrowser.c: don't try to call a running
help browser and don't install any menu path (all done in
app/gimphelp.[ch] now).
1999-07-22 Michael Natterer <mitschel@cs.tu-berlin.de>
* app/channel_ops.[ch]: new ui for the "Layer Offset" dialog.
* app/channels_dialog.c
* app/layers_dialog.c: major code cleanup: Folded some callbacks
into common ones, "widget" instead of "w", indentation, ...
* app/commands.c
* app/interface.[ch]
* app/global_edit.c: the query boxes must be shown by the caller
now. There's no need to split up the string for the message box
manually as the Gtk 1.2 label widget handles newlines corectly.
Added the "edge_lock" toggle to the "Shrink Selection" dialog.
Nicer spacings for the query and message boxes.
* app/ink.c: tried to grab the pointer in the blob preview but
failed. Left the code there as a reminder (commented out).
* app/menus.c: reordered <Image>/Select.
I was bored and grep-ed the sources for ancient or deprecated stuff:
* app/about_dialog.[ch]
* app/actionarea.[ch]
* app/app_procs.c
* app/brush_edit.c
* app/brush_select.c
* app/color_select.c
* app/convert.c
* app/devices.c
* app/gdisplay.c
* app/gdisplay_ops.c
* app/histogram_tool.[ch]
* app/info_window.c
* app/install.c
* app/ops_buttons.c
* app/palette.c
* app/palette_select.c
* app/paths_dialog.c
* app/pattern_select.c
* app/resize.c
* app/scale_toolc.c
* app/text_tool.c:
s/container_border_width/container_set_border_width/g,
s/sprintf/g_snprintf/g, replaced some constant string lengths with
strlen(x).
* app/bezier_select.c
* app/blend.c
* app/boundary.c
* app/errors.[ch]
* app/free_select.c
* app/gimpbrushlist.c
* app/gimprc.c
* app/iscissors.c
* app/main.c
* app/patterns.[ch]
* app/text_tool.c: namespace fanaticism: prefixed all gimp error
functions with "gimp_" and formated the messages more uniformly.
* app/gradient.c
* app/gradient_select.c: same stuff as above for the ui
code. There are still some sub-dialogs which need cleanup.
Did some cleanup in most of these files: prototypes, removed tons
of #include's, i18n fixes, s/w/widget/ as above, indentation, ...

* app/brush_select.c
* app/channels_dialog.c
* app/color_select.c
* app/devices.c
* app/file_new_dialog.c
* app/gradient_select.c
* app/palette_select.c
* app/pattern_select.c: applied a patch from Marco Lamberto
<lm@geocities.com> which unifies actionareas ("Cancel" rightmost
and default). Did the same in some more dialogs.
* libgimp/gimpfileselection.c
* libgimp/gimppatheditor.c
* app/preferences_dialog.[ch]: completely reworked the preferences
dialog:
- select the notebook's pages with a tree.
- reordered the categories. Please give me feedback, this really
needs to be intuitive.
- removed lots of unused #include's.
- turned the prefs. dialog into a test site for new convenience
constructors. These changes are however not visible. Flame me
until they're perfect ;) When finished, this stuff can save
*many* lines of gtk+ code.
* modules/colorsel_gtk.c: made it circular.
done in pieces, don't expect to be able to compile on Win32 from
these sources yet. Ans of course, the official version of GTk+
doesn't include the Win32 stuff yet.

New
* app/dialog_handler.c
* app/dialog_handler.h
Changed
* app/disp_callbacks.c
* app/gradient_select.c
* app/tools.c
* app/interface.c
* app/patterns.c
* app/gimpbrushlist.c
* app/palette.c
* app/layers_dialog.c
* app/devices.c
* app/errorconsole.c
Can now hide/show all main dialogs using the TAB key in any window.
However....
there is a bug in gtk that causes the Gimp the crash if you show
and then hide a lot of dialogs (eg if you have all dialogs visible
and press the TAB key repeatedly). I have email-ed an example to
the gtk bug list.
Also I can't seem to be able to catch the SHIFT-TAB combination
(suggestions welcome ;-) so the first press of the tab hide all
dialogs the second press reshows only the toolbox and the third
press reshows all. Comments please if you find this behaviour
non-intuitive.

Changed the palette dialog. New functionality. Better previews.
Can display larger palettes. Can import palettes from images and from
gradients. Fixed colour selection so that the hightlighted
square says in sync on redraws.
* app/convert.h
* app/palette.h
* app/palette.c
* app/gradient.c
* app/gradient_select.c
* app/gimage.c
* app/gimpimage.c
* app/gimpimage.h
New file:-
* app/palette_entries.h
Thu Nov 5 21:55:46 GMT 1998 Andy Thomas <alt@picnic.demon.co.uk>
* app/gradient.c
* app/gradient_select.c
Changes due to gtk+ updates. Clist have been changed recently
in gtk which required changes to source code. These changes
have only been tested with the gtk version that introduced these
changes. (so lets get all those updates going...)
Wed Nov 4 22:23:18 GMT 1998 Andy Thomas <alt@picnic.demon.co.uk>
* app/gradient.c
* app/Makefile.am
New files
* app/gradient_select.c
* app/gradient_header.h
Split gradient selector dialog out of the main gradient code.
New gradient headerfile that contains the key gradient structures
and #defines.
