Recently I have attempted to setup a GTK/Glade environment on Windows and had success with the pre-built gtk and glade packages from http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net. Tor Lillqvist suggested it was better to use the more updated gtk from http://www.gtk.org/download-windows.html Since I agree with Tor I have been trying to get a working msys-glade environment where I can develop with gtk and Glade. I got the all-in-one bundle and was able to make a simple gtk test program. With a bit of extra work, lots of Google searching and some help from this list I was able to get all the way to building the latest Glade with msys. There is only one problem that I have not been able to solve yet. From the simplest gtk only app to the Glade that I built, the fonts are noticeably larger than they were when I used the sourceforge gtk and Glade. I searched this list and found several threads about the font problem but some went unanswered and others I didn't understand. This is a summary of what I did to get a (mostly) working gtk and Glade setup. 1. get and install all-in-one bundle 2. get and install latest ActiveState perl 3. add windows environment variables PKG_CONFIG_PATH CPPFLAGS GMSGFMT 4. add GTK and Perl to msys PATH 5. fix path in pkgconfig *.pc files 6. get and build libidn-1.8 7. get and build libiconv-1.9.2 8. get and build gettext-0.17 9. get and build libxml2-2.6.32 10. get and install libglade-2.6.2-20080525 11. get and install libpng-1.2.29 12. get and build hicolor-icon-theme 13. get and build glade3-3.4.5 Can anyone please help me with the font problem? Beside trying to fix this problem, I am also trying to make a more detailed set of instructions based on the summary above. I hope to include some notes that explain some of the problems encountered and how they were fixed.
