[pygtk] importing gtk modifies sys.path
I don't know if this is normal behavior, but importing gtk causes sys.path to be modified. This holds for both pygtk-2.4.1 and pygtk-2.6.x.

[pygtk] text and fonts
I'm using a gtk rc file to set colors and fonts for various compotents. Most everything is working ok, but I can't seem to get fonts to take effect. The only one that seems to be recognized is bitstream-charter. All of the other common fonts honor the font size (somewhat), but the display is a broken font of some sort that gets more unreadable as font size increases (bold is ignored). Any ideas what might be going on here? I've tried removing some of the font libraries from the X config, but that seems to have no effect. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area - WWTLRD? gentoo(since 01/01/01) 2.4.18+(ext3) xfce-sylpheed-mozilla ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/

[pygtk] A few simple questions
1. I have a gui compile tool that presents a dialog box(do you want to rename temporary file?) that appears when each operation completes. Howdo I make this dialog box obtain complete control so that the user cannot continue use of the main window until the question in the dialog has been answered? 2. How do I obtain the current geometry settings (really just the top left corner) of the main window so that I can position the dialog box to overlay the main window? 3. Even though I use clist.freeze(), update the clist, clist.unthaw(), I get a lot of screen flickering. Any idea how to control this?

[pygtk] Dialog Box geometry

While the task is running, output is captured (compiles, for example) and written to a temporary file and the output is also written to the screen (when over 30 lines, row zero is removed before inserting new data at the bottom. Unfortunately, the data only appears after all is said and done (the command has run to completion). How can I make the data appear as it is added to the clist? Once full, the clist should appear as a continuously scrolling window with new data appearing at the bottom and old data removed at the top. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area - WWTLRD? gentoo(since 01/01/01) 2.4.18+(ext3) xfce-sylpheed-mozilla ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/

The value 8000 has to be larger than the number of items I insert into the clist, or the scrolled window can't reach all of the items.

[pygtk] Notebook tab functions
This is more of a python question than a pygtk question, but I've been unable to sort it out with my python books and several google searches. I have created a notebook than creates two tabs to display the contents of two different directory structures (installed packages and packages available for install). Each tab is identical except for the need to bind to different methods to handle the different directory structure for each. Right now I have the code duplicated to create each tab, and all is cool, but it would be nice to be able to collapse the duplicated code into a common function that I can invoke with the actual connection functions passed in. Is there a way to code a python function that receives an object that can be invoked in that function, i.e. the equivalent of passing in a pointer to funtion in C code and invoking that function or passing its address to another function.
