After seeing these little back-and-forths about libglade I searched around on the internet and found out a bit about libglade. I've started wrting the next "segment" of the tutorial using libglade instead, and put a note in the current tutorial about libglade. I'm currently reading Havoc Pennington's "GTK+/Gnome Application Development" as one of my sources. Now I realize it's out of date, however, I still feel it provides a good solid background for me in some of the overal concepts. So, with libglade, do I no longer have to deal with a GnomeUIInfo? Is that handled by libglade? Second question, should I be learning to use gnome_program_init() instead of gnome_init()?
