There are programs using C++ (epiphany, etc.) and Perl (gnome-system-tools), and maybe other languages (I don't think there's any Python involved), in the Desktop. But none of these use the GNOME bindings for these languages, they're just used as utilities where needed. Currently, it seems like the standard is C for most programs included in the Desktop and Platform. I'd like to see that change, but there's no way that people will settle for maybe one or two languages to add on to C. Personally, I think C# would do a good job, and Python too. Maybe IronPython (one VM :), but that wouldn't use PyGTK, as I understand it. Christoffer tor, 07,.10.2004 kl. 13.51 +0800, skrev Trent Lloyd:
Hi Gautier,hi all, I'm a GNOME lover, and an experienced C/C++ programmer. As I'm currently unemployed, I have plenty of time for coding.Sounds good :)I have two projects in sight: a HIG-compliant gmencoder front-end (maybe only GTK), and another front-end, for creating/verifying MD5 files.Cool.I'm learning pygtk, I love it even more than GNOME :) So I've a question: is there any program coded in python in GNOME ? Or should I just stick to C ? (plain GTK isn't really fun you know...)It's fine to write an application in whatever language you like, python is fairly well supported on most things so it shouldnt be a problem. No idea if theres any python programs in the gnome desktop at current. I mean you can write in C if you like, I don't think its so bad if you use libglade (if your not, check it out, even for python) Cheers, Trent Bur.st
