developing with Glade

wow. wonderful.

these are the first thoughts after the implementation of a couple of widgets, on a simple and sample Gtk.Window.

First of all, Glade allows the separation of interface and code.

Glade enables you the design of a GUI. Eclipse, or your favourite Python IDE, eanbles you the implementation of the methods connected to the widgets’ signals.

For the first time, I feel able to develop rapidly and efficiently using free (as in free speech) tools.

won-der-ful.
