I'm trying to create an incredibly simple application just to learn gui programming, but I can't see how to work with radio buttons.

A sample from my glade looks like:

<child>
                   <widget class="GtkRadioButton" id="radiobutton1">
<property name="label" translatable="yes">Ch 1</property>
                     <property name="visible">True</property>
                     <property name="can_focus">True</property>
                     <property name="receives_default">False</property>
                     <property name="draw_indicator">True</property>
                   </widget>
                   <packing>
                     <property name="position">1</property>
                   </packing>
                 </child>
                 <child>
                   <widget class="GtkRadioButton" id="radiobutton2">
<property name="label" translatable="yes">Ch 2</property>
                     <property name="visible">True</property>
                     <property name="can_focus">True</property>
                     <property name="receives_default">False</property>
                     <property name="draw_indicator">True</property>
                     <property name="group">radiobutton1</property>
                   </widget>


...and so on.  11 radiobuttons, all belonging to group "radiobutton1"


I've tried many different things in my python file, things like

radio = [r for r in cbc['radiobutton1'].get_group() if r.get_active()]

(Saw that somewhere in my search)

So, I have in my Class:


dic = { "on_button_quit_clicked" : self.button_quit_clicked,
         "on_window_destroy" : self.button_quit_clicked,
         "on_MainWindow_destroy" : gtk.main_quit,
         "on_button_print_clicked" : self.button_print_clicked,
         "on_button_edit_clicked" : self.button_edit_clicked }


And those all work fine so far.  ie:

def button_print_clicked(self, widget):
        print "Print clicked"

And when I click the "Print" button, it prints to the terminal. As I said, very basic.

Can someone tell me, show me, a very basic way of connecting to my radio buttons. If I could get the thing to just print "Radio button 3 is selected" I'd be ecstatic at this point.

I did read through the tutorial, but my old mind isn't flexible enough to go from the hardcoded gtk examples to separate glade + python files.
