We discuss a theoretical approach to structural glasses as they happen in real situations. Older ideas based on `configurational entropy', on `fictive temperatures' and on Edwards' `compactivity' are sharpened and unified in an out of equilibrium context. The picture is such that it may be supported or disproved by an experimental test, which we describe.
