Tutorial in hand-coding glade xml?
A few years ago I had to learn to use Windows Presentation Foundation and did so with the aid of [Petzold's excellent book][1]. As a result, I got used to, and preferred, hand-coding the XAML files that defined the layout and properties of the application GUI.

Now I'm learning to use GTK+ with Python. Again, I would prefer to hand-code the structure and properties in XML rather than use a GUI tool to do it. Does anyone know of a good tutorial that takes this approach? Everything I've found so far either works entirely in an executable language or uses a GUI builder application.
