Re: [pygtk] python-gtkhtml2 docs

Alright, I've been able to find enough information to get a very simple usage of the widget. One thing that still puzzles me is the fact that according to everything I read GtkHTML2 supports CSS and image loading. This either doesn't hold true for the Python module or I just can't get it to work. It seems that the request to load the css is being made and I can see the data being written to the GtkHTML2 stream handler but nothing is being done with the data because the stylesheet is not applied. I would appreciate any help from anyone that has played with GtkHTML and it's Python bindings. Thanks -- Mitko Haralanov == "No bugs were harmed in the preparation of this patch.

It looks like I didn't get callbacks for every word, but Pygtk seems to not be the problem anymore. Thanks again, The problem is that gtk and by extension pygtk has an event loop, and the python speechd api has implemented its own event loop within a thread. The speechd protocol is synchronous and sounds similar to RPCs. This event loop conflict was in general a problem with RPC programming with GUIs. The best solution is to integrate the two event loops using io_add_watch but that would entail throwing away the python speechd api and you would not have to use threads. This is the course I would take if I was doing your project. If you want to use the speechd python api you have to make your pygtk program threaded and that is more than just calling threads_init. Others on this list can point you to a list of best practices for threading in pygtk.

I see no sign of a call to gtk.gdk.threads_init() or whatever the current preferred alternative is. Without a call like that, I believe all versions of PyGTK don't really allow for threading. They certainly didn't at the python level last time I tried.
