That doesn't sound good to me. what if you have more records to show
than textviews?
You will find that in some programs it's just impossible to only use
Glade for your GUI, so it is advised to learn some plain PyGTK aswell.
In your example, this is the case too.
The best way (I think atleast) is to manually create your textview and
append it to your VBox with vbox.pack_start(textview)
Maybe even subclass gtk.Textview to have more control.
This way you will not have to create numerous textviews or add a VBox
with lot's of rows in Glade.
Cheers,
Timo
