One of the advantages of gnome over kde for many people, it seems to me,
is that they can code in C more easily.

Having said that, I did write something using Gtk/Perl too, but there
wasn't enough documentation so I stopped.  And no, I wasn't in a position
to contribute more to the documentation; if I had been, the lck of it
wouldn't have sent me away from perl-gtk :-)
