Hi, thanks. I already saw that page, sorry not to mention it. However
it's far from complete. Where is hildon.Window, hildon.Program,
hildon.AppView... ?

About the line breaks... Well, it makes it quite confusing to follow
the code. Fortunately the examples are quite sort. But as identation
and line breaks are critical in python, you can't copy-paste the
example in the tutorial and run it.

Greets.
