I like my mailer's pref stuff, i find it quite easy to add/remove a pref
with it. Initialisation is done via an array like
 {"do_login_on_startup", PREF_BOOL, FALSE, 
        prefs_set_data_from_toggle, prefs_set_toggle},
 {"font_size", PREF_INT, 4, 
        prefs_set_data_from_entry, prefs_set_entry},
 {"browser_path", PREF_STRING, "mozilla", &widget,
        prefs_set_data_from_entry, prefs_set_entry}

prefs_set_TYPE are functions initializing widgets when opening the prefs,
prefs_set_data_from_TYPE set the pref from widget when saving it.
