[Chicken-users] (address->pointer)

[William Ramsay]

Hi Felix,

Using (address->pointer number) does indeed do what I want.    It allows 
me to
pick up a user supplied integer in my  "define-external" code.   
However, it has
a rather bad side-effect.    The code is handled in a dialog box.   Using

   (g_signal_connect cbut "color-set" #$setColor (address->pointer 1))

will send a 1 to setColor, but it also wipes out my dialog pointer and 
crashes the
system on Cancel or Save when I try to destroy it.

Using   (g_signal_connect cbut "color-set" #$setColor #f) works fine.    
Adding
(address->pointer 1) is the only  difference.
