Oh, sorry; to an extent you are correct. But, being a consequence of moving from pygtk-0.6 to 2.0, this is only the tip of the iceberg -- FAQ section 2 outlines other changes that are necessary when moving from one version to the other. Most recent distributions have adopted pygtk-2.x; older applications written for pygtk-0.6.x still need the older version (though both coexist nicely). In summary, yes, you'd need to convert functions if you wanted to use both PyGTK versions, but in practice, pygtk-2.x is what you should be targetting (IOW, forget the old pygtk-0.6.x API). > > > Libglade is from the guy who created PyGTK.

At least with gtk2. As a matter of fact, he wrote both versions. What we use are wrapped versions of the C libglade libraries; and yes, he wrote the wrappers too <wink>.
