Today there were presentations by our seniors. First presentations was by Gurjot on GTK and Glade. Glade is used for Rapid Application Development (RAD). Glade is basically used to create user interface of an application. It is similar to Qt. Glade file generated is a variation of xml (Extensible Markup Language). GTK is used to code the backend of an application created in Glade. GTK+ should be installed first on your system to install Glade.
Click Here to download glade. When I was installing Glade, I came to the following errors:
Your intltool version is outdated (old version).
Then I installed it using following command:
sudo apt-get install intltool
