It could have been the "uics", although QyotoDevelop seems to have its
own code generation from a quick look at the project. I'll need to
investigate more to see whether uics is used at all by QyotoDevelop, how
it works, and whether it was QyotoDevelop or uics giving me bad code.

If Qyoto turns out to be nicer to work with than GTK# (and given how
ugly the GTK# API is for someone who has spent the last 8 years doing
mainly OO coding, I don't see how Qyoto could be worse!) then I'll help
where I can as a user, but I suspect there's a lot of C++ code behind it
all and so I probably won't be able to help as a developer. I blame
University for starting me on Java then C# while I did web stuff in Perl
and PHP - C++ just doesn't appeal when you've got later gen languages to
start with :)

Sounds cool, but a bit flashy and pointless for most apps ;) I know SWT
has a nice "widget gallery", so I'll hunt around for a Qt one and see if
I can find examples of what I get to play with.

True, but if you give people XML files rather than compiled binary files
then they're a bit more likely to try to do something with it. It'll
eventually be installed as a system-wide app, but for now I'm still in
v0.1 betas, so it is just a "download, extract and run" Mono app.

Thanks,
