And thank you :)

I'll certainly look into implementing your suggestions regarding the documentation. To answer your other questions :-

"Client Crashes" - Currently Gnome15 will clean up any resources opened by the DBUS client when it closes. It didn't used to do this, allowing bash scripts and the command line DBUS tools to be used to create pages. But this was slow, and there was no way of knowing when to clean up if it went wrong.

"The drawing commands feel quite slow" - This may be just DBUS, the drawing itself should be pretty quick. I think it's possible to make DBUS calls without waiting for a reply, which might speed things up a bit - no idea how though or what any side effects might be. Another alternative is to design the screen in SVG and use the SetThemeSVG() or LoadTheme() calls which will mean only 1 call. You can then draw other shapes or text over the top of that.

"The Image() page function rocks" - Interesting use of that function! It should support anything that GTK does. Can you find out by runnng :-

$ python
import gtk
gtk.gdk.pixbuf_get_formats()
