assignmap = (
     ('mainWindow', 'window'),
     ('menuitem_output_on', 'outputToggleMenu'),
     ('button_toggle_output', 'outputToggleButton'),
     ('textview_log', 'logView'),
     ('scrolledwindow_log', 'logScrollWindow'),
)
for name, selfname in assignmap:
     val = widgetDic[name] = self.wTree.get_widget(name)
     setattr(self, selfname, val)
