You can use glade_xml_get_widget to access your GtkTreeView and then do
whatever you want with it.  Look at the GtkTreeView documentation
(http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkTreeView.html).

Even if you use glade & anjuta you will have to learn the gtk API to
modify the tree view.

You have to put the undesired window "visibility" property to false on
glade.  Otherwise libglade will show this window on startup.
