** Working examples
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: working-examples
:END:
The old GUI examples were unable to be retained since they depended
on GTK2 and Python 2's integration with GTK2.
Current GPGME examples so far only include command line tools or
basic Python code for use with either Python 2.7 or Python 3.4 and
above.
Future GUI examples ought to utilise available GUI modules and
libraries supported by Python 3. This may include Qt frameworks,
Tkinter, GTK3 or something else entirely.
** Documentation
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: documentation
:END:
The legacy documentation which no longer applies to the Python
bindings has been removed.
Current and future documentation will adhere to the GnuPG standard
of using Org Mode and not use the reST more commonly associated
with Python documentation. The reasons for this are that this
project is best served as shipping with the rest of GPGME and the
documentation ought to match that. Furthermore, there are aspects
of Org Mode's publishing features which are superior to the
defaults of reST, including the capacity to generate fully
validating strict XHTML output.
If reST files are required at a later point for future inclusion
with other Python packages, then that format can be generated from
the .org files with Pandoc before being leveraged by either
Docutils, Sphinx or something else.
While there are some advanced typesetting features of reST which
are not directly available to Org Mode, more often than not those
features are best implemented with either HTML and CSS, with LaTeX
to produce a PDF or via a number of XML solutions. Both reST and
Org Mode have multiple paths by which to achieve all of these.
