	* gtk/gtkrange.[ch] gtk/gtkhscale.c gtk/gtkvscale.[ch]: Fit scales
	  into the theme-drawing framework. We do this by making them,
	  like check/radio-buttons, no-window widgets with subwindows. We
	  then move the value by calling gtk_widget_queue_clear() and only
	  redraw the value in our draw() / expose() handler.  A virtual
	  function clear_background is added which queues a clear on the
	  "background" portion of the widget.

	* gtk/gtktext.c (mark_bg_gc): Make background colors work
	  again. (We can't always paint the background with a
	  paint() function - only do that for selected text)

Mon Aug 17 20:31:01 1998  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gtk/gtktearoffmenuitem.c gtk/gtkclist.[ch] gtk/gtkctree.[ch]
	  gtk/gtklabel.c gtk/gtkmenu.c: Merges from main branch.

	* Makefile.am (SRC_SUBDIRS): Removed themes from SRC_SUBDIRS.
	  the themes can't be built as part of the same build since
	  they depend on gdk_imlib.

Fri Aug 14 12:44:30 1998  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gtk/gtkthemes.c (gtk_theme_engine_get): Removed sample engine code
	  from gtkthemes.c.

	* configure.in ltconfig.in ltmain.sh gdk/Makefile.am gtk/Makefile.am
	  gtk/

	  - Upgrade to libtool-1.2b + patch to add shared library dependencies
	    for Linux. (Needs to be extended to other platforms where they
	    are safe)

	 - Check for -ldl so this branch should build on all platforms, though
	   themes will work on all platforms they could work on.

	 - Use -version and -release simultaneously: sonames stay as they are
	   in the current scheme, but -lgtk-1.1 changes to -lgtk.

	 - Added in extra -l flags to library LDFLAGS so we get shared library
	   dependencies against X libs and -ldl. (But not libgtk against
	   libgdk or libglib yet, since dependencies against uninstalled
	   libraries aren't portable)

Fri Aug 21 19:08:25 1998  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* Makefile.am: Added support for metal theme.
	  Install/distribute gtkrc's for each theme.

Mon Aug 17 20:32:53 1998  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* Makefile.am, pixmap/Makefile.am: Switch back to using automake,
	  fix things up to make dist properly.

	* pixmap_theme.h: Rationalized.
	* win95_theme.h motif_theme.h: Removed

	* Started ChangeLog.

If you want to hack on the Gtk+ project, it will make you life easier
to have the following packages installed:
- GNU autoconf 2.12
- GNU automake 1.3
(Beta releases are at ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/tromey)
- GNU libtool 1.2
These should be available by ftp from ftp.gnu.org or any of the
fine GNU mirrors. Beta software can be found at alpha.gnu.org.
In order to get CVS gtk+ installed on your system, you need to have
the most recent CVS version of glib installed as well.
The installation process of glib is similar to that of gtk+, but
needs to be fulfilled prior to installation of gtk+.
To compile a CVS version of gtk+ on your system, you will need to take
several steps to setup the tree for compilation. You can do all these
steps at once by running:
cvsroot/gtk+# ./autogen.sh
Basically this does the following for you:
cvsroot/gtk+# aclocal; automake; autoconf
The above commands create the "configure" script. Now you
can run the configure script in cvsroot/gtk+ to create all
the Makefiles.
Before running autogen.sh or configure, make sure you have libtool
in your path.
Note that autogen.sh runs configure for you. If you wish to pass
options like --prefix=/usr to configure you can give those options
to autogen.sh and they will be passed on to configure.
If at all possible, please use CVS to get the latest development version of
gtk+ and glib. You can do the following to get glib and gtk+ from cvs:
$ export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@cvs.gimp.org:/debian/home/gnomecvs'
$ cvs login
(there is no password, just hit return)
$ cvs -z9 checkout glib
$ cvs -z9 checkout gtk+
Please submit patches to the gtk-list@redhat.com mailing list (you must
subscribe before you post, e-mail gtk-list-request@redhat.com with a
subject of "subscribe"). All kinds of contributions are accepted.
Patches that you wish to go into the distribution should also be uploaded
to ftp://ftp.gimp.org/incoming. Follow the rules there for naming your
patches.
