<p>Use <link href="http://glade.gnome.org/">Glade</link>, the UI editor
for GNOME to create a user interface. Glade produces XML files that describe
attributes of an application.</p>
<p>When creating a UI file using Glade, the <gui>ID</gui> that you
specify in Glade is the ID that you will later need to use to get the
object from the UI file.</p>
<example>
<p>Create a new window, then set <gui>ID</gui> to <code>window1</code>
and <gui>Title</gui> to <code>Hello World</code>:</p>

<p>Save the file with <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>Save As</gui></guiseq>
and name it <file>helloworld.glade</file>.</p>
