Sugar: Soy Client
completed by: Michal Proszek
mentors: AJ Williams, Arc Riley, David Czech
If you just install PySoy, open a terminal, run Python 3 and import soy
you'll get PySoy running with the standard X11 client in its own window. Obviously this doesn't fit with Sugar's GUI model.
Modify the X11 module found in libsoy/platforms/x11
to check an environmental variable LIBSOY_X11_WID
for a window handle and, if found, attempt to use it as a windowid instead of opening a new window. This will be used to open PySoy in an embedded subwindow.
