Thanks for that, Tomeu!

Please let's keep this sort of stuff on abiword-dev instead of having
those big To: lines. If you are not already subscribed, it's usually
rather low volume.

Hi all,

I gave a try today for using the new abiword python bindings and this is
the result.

First tried to use Martin's abicandy file, but I don't know almost
anything about glade and didn't succeed in making it work correctly.

So I went the same way as xbook and the browser and coded the ui by
hand, most of it is in toolbar.py.

I don't have any technical argument for using glade or not, but I
personally like more to express the ui in pygtk.

But a more important reason to use pygtk instead of glade is that I
think the children who wish to add a button, for example, will find
easier to modify toolbar.py than a glade xml file (or launching an
unsugarized glade).

So, here is a patch for abiword-olpc and another for sugar-jhbuild for
building the new abiword and the python bindings.

Marco, I think we'll need icons in anyway, could you ask Eben?

Thanks,

Tomeu
