-      using the libglade library these can be loaded by applications
-      dynamically as needed.
-
-      By using libglade, Glade XML files can be used in numerous
-      programming languages including C, C++, Java, Perl, Python, C#,
-      Pike, Ruby, Haskell, Objective Caml and Scheme.  Adding support
-      for other languages is easy too.
