xfce::programming python questions

Hello there:

I am thinking about gui programming for XFCE using python. My questions are:
1- All the GTK Reference manual applies to XFCE?
2- For Python, what is the easiest ide to start gui programming?
3- Is there a good howto for start gui programming for XFCE? Which one?
4- Programming for XFCE is the same as for Gnome?
5- For creating XFCE themes is there also a good howto?

Thanks a lot in advance.
Best Regards

Xermán

Re: xfce::programming python questions

There is already pyxfce (python bindings for Xfce).
You can donwload it from svn:

svn co http://svn.xfce.org/svn/xfce/pyxfce/trunk pyxfce

But since I'm not a developper,  I can't help you more.
You will have more information by asking on the developers mailing list of Xfce.

wapush,

thanks for the info. I wonder why there is no "developer" forum in here.

I will do as you suggest and join developer-mailing list.

thanks again
