Wrong way of doing things. We used to have a galago plugin, unfortunately it's not been developed in a long while. What you'd want is: 1) a Totem plugin to set the gnome-session status 2) a Pidgin plugin to listen to the gnome-session status That means that Totem could work with other instant messengers, and Pidgin could work with other video players. See this for 1): http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=567909 Although to get into Totem itself, it would need to be in C. A prototype in Python might help a bit. > Since I'm a newcomer to pygtk and plugin development can you tell me > which is the proper way to get informed when totem changes from window > fullscreen more? If you really want to know, take a look at the screensaver plugin (even though it's in C, the modus operandi would be the same).
