The person I would like to thank the most is [James Henstridge](http://www.jamesh.id.au/), the author of [PyGTK (Python GTK+ bindings)](www.pygtk.org/
). His help and
advice have proved invaluable during the development of this extension, and a
fair amount of source code is based on or inspired by what he has developed for
PyGTK.

I'd also like to thank PHP team for making such a great language and the GTK+
team for developing what has to be the best C-based GUI toolkit.
