Could someone that know their way around GTK make pike -x pv work with GTK2?

-----------

So, I'm rewriting pike -x pv to work with GTK2, as requested above, and it is requiring a few updates.

First, because of the flexibility of GDK2.Pixbuf, I'm looking at removing Image.Image from the code. GDK2.Pixbuf can do it all (it appears so far) except for reading from a byte stream (as it is written right now). Because of this, I'm modifying gdkpixbuf.pre to add support for loading an image from a string. I'm testing it right now, then I will commit the change when I'm sure it works.

What Marcus said.

Since pv stopped working for me I made my own code, it does this:

void gtk_show_image(Image.Image img) { object win=GTK2.Window(GTK2.WindowToplevel); win->set_size_request(img->xsize(),img->ysize()); object da=GTK2.DrawingArea(); win->add(da); win->show_all(); win->show_now(); GTK2.GdkPixmap px=GTK2.GdkPixmap(img); da->set_background(px); }

I'm not sure if that's optimized at all, but it seems to work for now. It was built on a lot of chancing and looking at stuff using indices and typeof. :)

(I don't know why it can't take an Image.Image directly in the set_background. It'd been nice.)
