Hula Girl and the X-Pods

I spent some time this week learning python. PyGTK specifically. I've been writing a little config app for abe. Along the way, I found a nifty little bug in gtk_file_chooser_set_filename () as shipped in GTK+ 2.6.1. Calling it on an existant file, then running the GtkFileChooserDialog will run the chooser and display the folder where the file lives, but not select the file. It does however work, if you call it after the dialog is open, say in a map callback handler (thanks Ray for that suggestion).

I'm also now browser team lead for whatever that's worth. Welcome Hula Girl, and the X-Pods, too. Such a great band name....
