Re: Gtk2.0 on Windows with NO text?!

Martyn,

Are you getting tiny black dots/squares wherever you'd expect text to be?

If so, it sounds like your probably missing the etc\pango\pango.modules file
(which should be relative to wherever you've got the DLLs I think).  If you
used Tor's prebuilt packages then this should happen automatically when they
were unzipped but if you've started moving things around it can go wrong.

See the thread starting at
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-app-devel-list/2002-June/msg00263.html
for more information.

Hope that helps.
Richard W.
