| dpm | good morning everyone | 06:31 |

| TheFred | hello | 09:55 |
| TheFred | I've been reading about using quickly to create ubuntu applications, and can see that 'quickly edit' opens the files, but which one should i place my python (2.7) code into? | 09:56 |
| dpm | hi TheFred. Your GUI code should be on the <yourapp>Window.py file | 10:20 |
| dpm | you can modify it to suit your needs | 10:20 |
| TheFred | aha - thanks,i was tinkering trying to work it out for myself | 10:20 |
| dpm | but that does not mean that the code needs to be confined there | 10:20 |
| dpm | you can add your own additional modules outside of that file | 10:20 |
| dpm | what that file provides is just a boilerplate to help you get started | 10:21 |
| TheFred | I was banging my head trying to modify the __init__.py | 10:21 |
| TheFred | dpm, thanks - thats appreciated | 10:21 |
| dpm | TheFred, no worries, glad to help. Feel free to ask here or on askubuntu if we can give a hand in any way | 10:22 |
| TheFred | I know this is newbish - but do i have to create my own class, or modify the ***Window class thats already there? | 10:22 |
| dpm | it all depends on what you want to do. If you are just starting, I'd recommend just modifying the window that's created for you | 10:23 |
| dpm | simply run 'quickly design', strip it of anything you don't need | 10:23 |
| dpm | add the widgets, that you need, etc | 10:24 |
| dpm | and modify the rest in the code (on <yourapp>Window.py) | 10:24 |
| dpm | you might also want to read the tutorial, it's quite helpful. You can run 'quickly tutorial' and the documentation viewer will pop up with the docs | 10:25 |
| TheFred | ok, i've got a python program that runs well, it reads ascii strings from a socket and would like to display this in either a text box or label | 10:25 |
| TheFred | aha - quickly tutorial, you say.... thats gold | 10:26 |
| dpm | :-) | 10:26 |
| dpm | if your program is contained in a module, perhaps you can just drop it as it in the 'yourapp' folder and integrate it with <yourapp>Window.py so that it reads the results and displays them | 10:27 |
| dpm | this way you get nice separation between logic and UI | 10:27 |
| TheFred | thats an area i really need to do more work on - classes and modules, this may just be the motivation i need | 10:34 |
| dpm | cool :) | 10:52 |
| dpm | a real project always helps with motivation | 10:53 |
| TheFred | hmm, now to try to get the strings from the socket into a textview.. but how to I go about connecting data = client_socket.recv(512) to a text view? | 14:26 |
| TheFred | The button events seem straight forward enough, but socket events? | 14:26 |

| strycore | hey there | 21:45 |
| strycore | I don't know if anyone here uses vim to code PyGobject, but i'm having a lot of troubles with it | 21:46 |
| strycore | i've explained the problem in details here: https://plus.google.com/u/0/105054545451660940700/posts/YMd62nU17GP | 21:47 |
| strycore | but basically, vim crashes as soon as i enter PyGobject code | 21:48 |
