Use a select wrapper around the GLib event loop, thus taking into account GLib timeouts and event sources. This simplifies Gtk+-code a lot, and is needed for handling GConf death/restart. * xterm.c: #include xgselect.h. (x_initialize): Call xgselect_initialize. * xsettings.c (something_changedCB): C++ comments => C comments. (init_gconf): Do not deal with any GLib file descriptors, xg_select does that now. * gtkutil.c (xg_timer, xg_process_timeouts, xg_start_timer) (xg_stop_timer, menu_grab_callback_cnt, menu_grab_callback) (scroll_bar_button_cb): Remove. (create_menus): C++ comments => C comments. Don't bind grab-notify event. (xg_create_scroll_bar): Don't bind button-press-event and button-release-event. * process.c: Include xgselect.h if defined (USE_GTK) || defined (HAVE_GCONF). (wait_reading_process_output): Call xg_select for the same condition. * xgselect.c (xg_select): New function to better integrate with GLib/Gtk event handling. Needed if GConf daemon dies/restarts. * xgselect.h: New file, declare xg_select, xgselect_initialize. * Makefile.in (XOBJ): Add xgselect.o.
