I think that thinking in terms of so-called "script languages" is misleading (and even demeaning in Ruby's case), because this issues applies to the other extension languages that Glade supports. There are at least a couple of related issues that immediately come to mind. (1) A full glade2rb would be nice to have so that you would not have to reprocess the XML file every time you run some application, especially if you have a large GUI, and you would like it to start up quickly. It would help make applications more self-contained. (While you could always internalize the XML files as a here-document, this is troublesome to update.) (2) Many people might want to use Glade and glade2rb to get a Ruby GUI program started on a one shot basis, and then program stuff on their own after that. AFAK, working with pure Ruby/GTK+ code would be simpler in such cases. (I am very much a novice when it comes to GTK and Glade, so I may misunderstand some of these issues.) > and tell me how you want output.rb to be. do you just want output.rb > to have all the code, so that you can later include from your script? > Or, do you want to have a file per window? some OO way? (although, > i'm not sure how ;p) Good question. I think a single file with all the code (with maybe 1 module per window (for better name space management?)) would be OK. > ps.
