Shared Python Code

This is our own shared code page. Here you can/should add ready-made, good and working code snippets for other to use. It is highly recommended to share stuff, AS IT MAKES EVERYONE'S LIFE EASIER. No need to invent the wheel twice.

So, add the codes underneath. You can copy the template underneath and just add to the line:

Tutorial for PyGtk

though not every function in pygtk library does work in maemo as developer were too lazy and didn't import them. like no scrollbar or slidebar exist in maemo.

    # Now we create a button box, which is an container that can have multiple buttons in it

    # And then finally add all the buttons to the buttonBox
    buttonBox.add(button1)
    buttonBox.add(button2)
    buttonBox.add(button3)
    # And then the buttonBox to the window
    window.add(buttonBox)
 
 
 
    # The final step is to display this newly created widget and all widgets it
    # contains.
    window.show_all()
 
    # All GTK+ applications must have a gtk_main(). Control ends here and waits
    # for an event to occur (like a key press or mouse event).
