Thanks Corrie - been there done that. I find directories called
glade-3, glade-common, glade-gnome-3 and glade-doc.
But glade-doc (which I would have thought a likely candidate) has
files AUTHORS, copyright and TODO and directories changelog, help,
examples and so on. 'help' sounded helpful but a couple more
directories down I find an XML file that might be useful if I had the
right decoding software ...
The other top level directories aren't quite so useful - they all tell
me who the authors are though :-)
I feel that I am missing something important!
