gnome is a large development framework targettet to bringing MS windows like desktop functionality to Unices.

gtk is a UI widget toolkit for X11, with a bunch of C helper functions in Glib.

glade is an attempt at a WYSIWYG UI-builder for the gtk toolkit.

and if you're comfortable with motif, and you don;t need to integrate your application into nome, I wouldn't know why you need to use gnome/gtk/glade over xmotif.

for a long time, which one is the best?

GNOME -- http://www.gnome.org/
GTK+ -- http://www.gtk.org/
Glade -- Information is available at the GNOME site.

XMotif is quite old and crusty, but functional.

Try them and see. Some people swear by GTK+, others by QT.

regards,

jean
