PyGTK uses new style classes heavily. New style classes were introduced in Python 2.2 basically to solve the problem about sub classing of Classes in Python/C. Before you had to use ExtensionClasses to do the same thing. I'm afraid it would be impossible to backport, even to Python 2.1. But most modern distributions ship Python 2.2 nowadays, it was after all released in December 2001. For more information about the new style classes, check the following link: http://www.python.org/doc/2.2.1/whatsnew/sect-rellinks.html -- Johan Dahlin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Async Open Source _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
