[Kde-bindings] Panel Applets in Python

[Jim Bublitz]

I recall a message a while ago regarding doing panel applets or 
plugins in languages other than C++. I just added Python plugin 
support to PyKDE-3.8rc1 (lots of docs too): 

http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/pykde

The same method should work for writing panel extensions, KParts, 
styles, etc. - I just haven't gotten around to those yet. It's 
possible to do panel applets completely in Python - no C++ 
required (on the user's part anyway). I also added an applet 
installer that takes care of the drudgery (symlinks, desktop 
file, installing in the right place, etc). It's "rc1" because 
the installer needs a little work yet - otherwise it's complete.

If anyone wants more info, let me know.
