[pygtk] PyGTK GUI for a C program?

[Jeff Bullard]

I decided to scrap the python and go with the C interface to GTK.  Learning
PyGTK first certainly made it easier.  I'm still struggling with a few
things but I think the code will be cleaner this way.   Good thing is that I
can use the same glade xml file that I used with PyGTK.

Pyrex looks convenient but I frequently modify the C code.  That would
require translating to Pyrex every time I make changes.
