Python
GObject is a object system used by GTK+, GStreamer and other libraries.
PyGObject provides a convenient wrapper for use in Python programs when
accessing GObject libraries. Like the GObject library itself PyGObject
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
featured applications. PyGObject now dynamically accesses any GObject
libraries that uses GObject Introspection. It replaces the need for
separate modules such as PyGTK, GIO and python-gnome to build a full
GNOME 3.0 application. Once new functionality is added to gobject
library it is instantly available as a Python API without the need for
intermediate Python glue.
