Add a dialog box for constructing expressions that test a field in the
display tree, based on Jeff Foster's dialog box for selecting fields. Make the dialog box for browsing filters into a dialog box for constructing filters; make the "Apply" button and the "OK" button apply the filter in the text entry box in the dialog, not the currently selected filter (selecting a filter puts it in that text entry box, but the user may edit it afterwards, or may use the aforementioned dialog box to construct a filter not in the list). Get rid of extra declarations of "m_r_font" and "m_b_font" in "proto_draw.c"; they're declared in "gtk/gtkglobals.h", which it includes. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2805
