I want to port TeXmacs to gtk. While I am at it, it makes sense to port it to use perl Gtk as well because I don't like much the existing extension/configuration language. The next step is to think on a event framework. POE qualifies. The next thing I want is to have the GUI define in a portable format. Here come glade and Gtk::GladeXML.

So with glade, I generate the XML code for a main gtk window and the following code snippet works Ok. But when I use a main Gnomde window I get the error message ** WARNING **: unknown widget class 'GnomeApp' that is in fact fatal. If I comment out the use POE, things get back to normal.

I welcome any suggestion or comment. I have a page where I post my searches, ramblings and progress

use Gtk;
use Gnome;
use Gtk::GladeXML;
use POE;
Gnome->init("TeXmacs", "1.0"); 
my $g = new Gtk::GladeXML(shift || "app.glade");
my $w = $g->get_widget('MainWindow');
$g->signal_autoconnect_from_package('main');
Gtk->main;
