[pygtk] problem appending data to Clist using libglade

[Hugo Varotto]

Hi to all,

while writing a small program in Python using GTK and libglade, I found
a strange behaviour with CLists created with libglade. If I try to
append data to a clist, no matter what string I put in the "append"
instruction, the clist only shows up the first lettter of the string.
I'm very puzzled at this, and I'm no sure if I should initialize
beforehand the width of the clist column or whatever.

I've attached a very small Python program that will load a very small
.glade XML file and attemt to add ( append ) some data to it. In my
machine at least it shows only the first letter 9 for all the rows ).
I'm also attaching the .glade file ( hope I'm not breaking any mailing
list rule by attaching these text files ). I'll apreciate if somebody
could take a look at them to see what's wrong.

Now the usual stuff: I'm running RedHat 6.2, python is 1.5 and the
versions of PyGTK is 0.6.6, pygnome is 1.0.53 and libglade is 0.14
( I believe the latest ones distributed by Helixcode GNOME ).

I'm fairly new to the Python and libglade world ( 3 days ago I haven't
even tried to start python neither using libglade ), so it might be very
possible that I'm doing something very wrong.

Thanks in advance,

Hugo
