Great to know. I'll try it ASAP but I wonder how it can handle our 
custom widgets ?

I had some problems yesterday with xrc files. I changed dlgTable.xrc, 
ran embed-xrc, make, make install... and nothing. I didn't see any of my 
changes. I finally found that I had to manually copy the dlgTable.xrc 
file in the installation directory to get it working. If i'm correct, we 
need XRC files on linux and they are embedded with the binary on the 
windows platform. I wonder why "make install" didn't install my 
customized copy of the dlgTable.xrc file.

FYI, I'm working on adding fill factor support.

Oh and I found a SIGSEG on the options window. I need to investigate this.

Regards.
