cannot import gtk

[Pascal Ronecker]

Thanks !

but i'm still stuck.

For example : GtkText does not exist, neither does Text alone.

What is more, i have other problems with "from gnome.ui import GnomeApp"
and so on.Changing all the code seems a long way to me.
(it is the "eroaster" cd burning tool, a nice all-in-one)


Maybe the right solution is to "install the bindings" as you say, but i
do not have the slightest idea as to what it means...

So if you could explain a bit that last bit, ...
thx !!
