Re: When to call show()?

Which is better?

It depends ;)

If you have a simple GUI where all widgets are always visible, calling 
$window->show_all() is faster, simpler and less to type. But if you want
specific widgets being invisible until specific conditions become true 
at runtime, $window->show_all() would make them visible at start time, 
which is probably not want you want, resp. you need to make these 
specific widgets invisible after calling show_all().
