If you want to reset state of some widgets to a predefined state, just iterate through them and set their state. Or destroy them and construct anew. However, if you want to `clear any other variables that might have changed', that is get your program to the state it started in, you can actually restart it. Save the contents of argv when the program starts, and then execv() self to restart. Of course, there are still things like open files that are not reset this way and other possibilites of subtle problems. You can take care of them manually or use other means to reset them (e.g., fcntl() to set close-on-exec flag on open files).
