> GObject signals can be used to notify applications of events specific
to this object. Note, however, that the application needs to be aware
of signals and their meaning, so if you're looking for a generic way
for application-element interaction, signals are probably not what
you're looking for. In many cases, however, signals can be very useful.
See the <A

>GObject
documentation</A
> for all internals about signals.
