Hi Bill,
thanks for reporting this. And congratulations for probably being
the second *⎕GTK *user (I am judging the popularity of system
functions like *⎕GTK* by the number of trouble reports that I receive).
The problem you see is most likely caused by a missing ID in
the top-level window.
It looks like older glade versions (mine is *3.16.1)* assign that ID
automatically while newer glade versions (yours seems to be *3.38.2*)
do not anymore.
I have changed *GNU APL *so that it now prints a more readable error
information if this happens. *SVN 1738*.
I should also mention that I do not use glade anymore. I read somewhere
that it is no longer supported. You may also want to have a look at
workspace
*SQL_GUI.apl* which demonstrates how to define GTK GUIs programmatically
and without the need for external tools like glade.
Best Regards,
Jürgen

I'm trying to learn how to write a graphic program.
Following the instructions in HOWTOs/Quad-GTK.html, I created
GTK_sample_app.ui and offered that file to ⎕GTK. The log show the
failure.
Undaunted, I copied the XML in the instruction and create
GTK_jurgen.ui. Offering that file worked.
