Oh, I see. You are talking about extending the widgets. I am talking
about using existing ones. I never had a need to extend widgets, so I
won't comment about this.

Admitedly, I didn't go that far. And I don't think any beginner would
start with that either. Agreed, Glade might not be sufficient for
sophisticated stuff (but you should give it a try, I'm quite sure it is
more able than you think). And Glade is a great way to /learn/ how
GTK/GTKAda work.
