DESCRIPTION:  
The gnome-python package contains the source packages for the Python
bindings for GTK+ and GNOME (PyGTK and PyGNOME, respectively).

PyGTK is an extension module for Python that provides access to the
GTK+ widget set. Just about anything (within reason) you can write in
C with GTK+, you can write in Python with PyGTK, but with all of
Python's benefits.

PyGNOME is an extension module for Python that provides access to the
base GNOME libraries, so you have access to more widgets, a simple
configuration interface, and metadata support.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note on this Cygwin port:
* Make sure you have appropriate libraries installed before using these modules.
  At least you should have all the core libraries of Cygwin GNOME.

* To keep consistency with other Cygwin GNOME packages, 
  this package is also built with prefix=/opt/gnome, so you have to add 
  /opt/gnome/lib/python2.2/site-packages to your PYTHONPATH to use PyGTK or PyGNOME.
  ~/.bash_profile or /etc/profile is a good place to hold this.

* Due to a filename conflict between gtk.py and GTK.py under DOS/Windows,
  GTK.py was renamed to GTKconst.py. 
  You may need to modify your script, like this:
	import * from GTK
	import * from gtk
  to => 
	import * from GTKconst
        import * from gtk
