Hello,
I've been a lurker on this list for a very long time now, but
for various reasons
I've never done much more till just the last two or three weeks, since
then I fallen in
love with glade as I've played with it, so firstly I'd like to say thank
you one and all for
glade :-)#. next I want to join you in developing glade (I'm still
learning GTK so I might
take a while before I do much), but I need to know can I have both the
old Glade &
Glade2 etc on one box? I'd need GTK2 would I?, can the old Glade use this?
