Description Murray Cumming 2010-12-17 12:22:42 UTC 
The GApplications::open signal is rather awkward:
http://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/tree/gio/gapplication.h#n94

It would be easier for language bindings if it just returned a GList*, or at least a null-terminated array. Or even better, if we could just call a method to get that list after receiving the signal.

But I guess it's too late for that now?

Yes.  It was too late for this some time ago, sorry. :/  Closing.
