Hello Martin,

that is correct, however support is trivial to add: Add the #\C
character to the regular expression for callback signatures, add a case
for #\C typed arguments in the dispatcher that treats them identically
to #\v typed arguments, use pointer->canvas from the canvas-draw egg in
your callback code to add the right type tags to the raw pointer.

I think that the #\C signature character has been introduced recently in
IUP. Anyway, I added the necessary marshalling code as outlined above to
the iup egg, it is available in the trunk version of the code.

Ciao,
Thomas
