[pygtk] running gtk from crontab
Does anybody know if it is possible to run (py)gtk scripts that don't need a GUI from crontab or from a non X11 terminal? This might seem a daft requirement, but I'm using the pygtk image processing capabilities to do some batch processing for images that I don't need to display. pgpFtNiZelNDY.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ pygtk mailing list pygtk@daa.com.au http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
[pygtk] Re: Pixbuf memory leak?

Should I expect the del to free up the memory used by the loaded image, or is there some kind of 'close' call I need to be invoking first? Think I've found the answer to this one in the archives. Various other people have reported a similar bug, but http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.gtk+.python/2315/match=pixbuf suggests it's an issue with the garbage collector. Adding an explicit gc.collect() after my del stops my memory usage wandering off the scale. This looks like a generic issue for anyone manipulating lots of large objects, and an easy trap for those that thought that python 'just did' memory allocation and one never need bother about it. ___ pygtk mailing list pygtk@daa.com.au http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/

[pygtk] Whole App Cursor Setting
I'm trying to put up a watch cursor while my app is busy. I've found how to do it for one widget, but I really want to freeze up the whole GUI. http://www.daa.com.au/pipermail/pygtk/2000-October/000435.html looks just what I'm after. However, it seems to have suffered from software ageing and half the calls don't seem to be present (in 2.6.2). Can anybody offer a current equivalent of his fragment? ___ pygtk mailing list pygtk@daa.com.au http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
