But, I've never used Glade to interface with Python. Anyone know of a good resource to learn that? I haven't been able to find any Glade/Python tutorials out there with google. I read through some of the source for redhat-configure-packages, but I have a hard time learning by reading other people's code, I'm better with some kind of a reference. I'd also like to get involved with them more in this project. I read about a cron/at scheduler idea going around. Is that still out there? Let me know!! I'd love to "get my feet wet"!!! : ) On Tue, 2003-11-04 at 09:56, Brent Fox wrote: <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE> <PRE>On Tue, 2003-11-04 at 10:15, Sean Middleditch wrote: > Agreed.

But for programs like redhat-config-kickstart which have tons of widgets, Glade really saves a lot of time. Creating all that widget code by hand would have been tedious and would have really increased the line count. I feel that Python has a great deal of untapped potential. Wrapping a decent IDE around Python and using something like Glade for the UI builder would give us an open source equivalent to Visual Basic. It would provide a rapid application development environment for Windows developers looking to migrate to Linux. Maybe Eclipse has something for Python; I'll have to check.
