Hi,

You at the right spot here, but sometimes it's a bit busy that review of
patches gets delayed. A headsup is always oke.

Few remarks on the patch.

Please attach the patch to your emails i.s.o. pasting them in. It makes
handling patches so much easier.

You've used some string handling glib functions which, to my knowledge,
aren't available in glib 1.2. Functions I've seen are g_stpcpy and
g_strlcat, but maybe there more. Can you verify this works on glib 1.2?

Thanx,
Jaap
