Actually, my ap is not Glade-Perl generated in any manner.  I may have mis-spoke when I refered
to Gtk::Perl. I was merely referring to the Gtk-Perl bindings in general (well, v .6123 to be specific)

Yes, my code is free (of course!) and is available from http://www.cyberdeck.org/cscmail

Version 1.3b is just released a little while ago.  Screenshots are available at
http://www.cyberdeck.org/screenshots.html

Sorry to disapoint you though about the Glade bindings.  I have looked at Glade, and did
use it to help learn the basics of containers and widget placement under Gtk.  But I already
include more than enough modules in my app as it is, and actually had quite a bit of trouble
getting the glade/perl compiler to create usable source code (actually, never DID get it to
generate anything that would run.  But it was a GREAT tool for learning how the widgets
interact, and in the absence of a good document detailing the Gtk::Perl bindings, was one
of the best tutors I had to learning Gtk/Perl programming.  Thanks!
