After installing, I did this: 1. Run Glade 2. Open the editor.glade demo 3. Hit the button to write Ada source code, 4. Need to specify a source directory, so I use my windows start key to open "My Computer" in another window, find the directory I want to use, and enter it into Glade dialog for the source and graphics directory. 5. The dialog closes, but I can't get any of the other Glade Windows to redraw. Selecting them on the NT task bar doesn't give me anything on the screen. I've got three windows, but none of them are reachable. So, I use task manager to end the process, then try again: 1. Run Glade 2. Open the editor.glade demo 3. Hit the button to write Ada source code, 4. Specify a source directory, put the directory I want to use, and enter it into Glade dialog for the source and graphics directory. 5. Glade crashes. Is anyone else having success? Any tricks to getting this to work? I assume that this works better under linux, that maybe I should run Glade on a linux machine and then compile the generated code under Win32 if that's my target. Is that a better way to use this package to create Win32 apps at present?
