What is PyGTK?
PyGTK (a.k.a python-gtk or gtk-python) is a set of bindings to the GTK+ user interface toolkit for the Python language. The main site to look for more information on these bindings is [www.pygtk.org] . There, new releases, news, reference docs, tutorials, applications built on top of it and other information can be found. Python is an interpreted language with a very clean syntax, high-level data structures, dynamic typing, object oriented characteristics and generally acceptable performance. For more information on Python see [www.python.org] GTK+ is a graphical user interface toolkit, which includes user interface components (hereafter called by the usual name widgets) and a framework for handling events that are produced upon these components. For more information on GTK+ see [www.gtk.org] A binding is code (usually a library) that allows you to access functions that were coded in another language. In our case, GTK+ was written in C, and applications written in C can use native GTK+
