Hi Gene! My 4 GTK applications left are "terminator" (it's 0.97, gtk2 version, on hold, as 1.xx is gtk3 and utterly broken), GIMP (can't do much about it) and DrRacket (which has a use-gtk2-switch). "Geany" was good, as long as it was GTK2, the GTK3 version is broken badly, and firefox (well ...). Guess some GNOMEs get good money for breaking things in a creative way.
