Documentation is largely missing, it appears. To connect to signals,
you first have to declare a signal handler in glade. You can then
connect the signal handler with a specific function. To do so, you can
either use .connect(signalname, function), or .auto_connect(dictionary
of signal/handler pairs).

Hope this helps,
