...Which brings me to another question... 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 Now I realize it's out of date,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()?
