| :''Glade is a free user interface builder for GTK+ and GNOME, released under the GNU GPL License.''
| |
| | |
| :''The user interfaces designed in Glade are saved as XML, and by using the libglade library these can be loaded by applications dynamically as needed. (Glade can also generate C code, though this isn't recommended for large applications.)''
| |
| | |
| :''By using libglade, Glade XML files can be used in numerous programming languages including C, C++, Java, Perl, Python, C#, Pike, Ruby, Haskell, Objective Caml and Scheme. Adding support for other languages is easy too.''
