“In this article we’ll show you how you can use the
Gnome-Python module for creating GNOME applications with Python.
Can Python, the interpreted, object oriented (OO), high-level
programming language that has become so widely popular among
programmers, really be used for creating GUIs? Of course it can! In
fact, you can create whole GNOME applications with it. Using this
Python module, creating GNOME applications will be easier and
faster. To fully understand the discussions in this article, you
need some basic knowledge about GNOME and Python
programming.“
“So, the Gnome-Python module is obviously a powerful tool that
you can use for creating GNOME applications. But really, what does
that mean? Essentially that means Gnome-Python is a Python wrapper
around the GNOME C-functions. When you create a GNOME application
in Python, Gnome-Python will make sure that the correct C-functions
are called. You never have to bother about the C-functions;
Gnome-Python will take care of that. Instead, you can stay lost in
the land of Python all day long, without giving a thought to memory
leaks, core dumps and type casting!”
