Marc,
Generating GUIs from glade sounds like a great idea (although I'm not
personally interested in using it).
It would be great if you could post the code as a patch on Savannah.
[https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?func=additem&group=octave].
One potential trouble will be with callbacks. In Matlab, callbacks are
typically handles to nested functions, so that they can access shared
variables. Octave currently can't take handles of nested functions. I
wrote a simple patch at [https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?39257] that
allows handles to be taken of nested functions. It lets me make a simple
GUI, but it is not stable enough to be put into production yet. (It can
crash Octave if the GUI terminates abnormally, such as by ^C or a code
error.)
Cheers,
Lachlan
