This is a simple Python program.

Among the usual imports at the top is: import gtk.glade, which is required to import the .glade file.

The program has one class, GladeTestApp, whose constructor creates the Hildon Program and Hildon Window, imports the .glade file, assigns Glade objects local names, reparents a widget, sets the Hildon program menu from a Glade-defined menu, sets up signal handlers for user events, and other things.

The class is instantiated as an object named app, and it's run()method is executed.

Let's start by examining how the constructor creates the Hildon Program and Hildon Window.
