Does anybody use it on sparc Solaris, with po files generated on this architecture ? I sent a patch a long time ago to fix endianness-related problems, but it has not made its way to the 1.0.51 release it seems ;-) Oops. Shame on me. We have an endian fix in our local verion of gettext (one that can read from .gz files and other stuff), but I never got it committed to gettext.py.

Re: [pygtk] X selection handling
Selection handling is a complicated subject, which I don't know that much about. You probably should read some docs on X's handling of selections before playing around with this (the O'Reilly books probably have something about this). If you only want to do text clipboard transfers, you could use the hack the GnomeIconList widget uses -- create a toplevel GtkWindow (of type popup, so the window manager ignores it) a long way off screen (eg at 2000,2000), and place a GtkEntry in it. You can use the GtkEditable clipboard functions on this widget. You can connect to the GtkEntry's selection_notify_event signal to be notified when a selection changes.

There's a little bit on this in Havoc Pennington's new book. Take a look at http://developer.gnome.org/doc/GGAD/sec-gdkevent.html; do a find on "selection events". -- R.
