Re: Some issues with the newest pre-release (20050526)

Well done, Keith, this is the best report I've had for a while !

Fixed, I think.

Irrelevant warning, hanging around from toolbars development. Now gone.

Except if the clicked item is already selected - in that case, there is no 
change to the selection (at least, that's how W'98 works)
Fixed.

Here, typing "exit" closes the terminal window (I checked with xterm and 
gnome-terminal).
Perhaps the next step toward resolution is to confirm that your button's action 
is:
<custom command> $[command-xterm] &
If so, try changing it to <custom command> sh -c $[command-xterm] (IIRC, yours 
will save such change, before it crashes, or maybe "apply" won't crash)
Otherwise, we might find something from app. versions ??

Fixed.

Works as expected, here, so please provide some more detail about the nature of 
the problem.
