>
> GTK+ is a toolkit for developing graphical applications that run on
> systems such as Linux, Windows and MacOS X. It provides a comprehensive set
> of GUI widgets, can display Unicode bidi text.  It links into the Gnome
> Accessibility Framework through the ATK library.
>
> PyGTK provides a convenient wrapper for the GTK+ library for use in
> Python programs, and takes care of many of the boring details such as
> managing memory and type casting.  When combined with PyORBit and
> gnome-python, it can be used to write full featured Gnome applications.
>
> Like the GTK+ library itself PyGTK is licensed under the GNU LGPL, so is
> suitable for use in both free software and proprietary applications.  It
> is already in use in many applications ranging from small single purpose
> scripts up to large full features applications.
